Program Management. I have watched several colleagues switching from dev to PM over time precisely because of stress, both in terms of keeping up with tech as well as release pressure. The downside is that PM jobs are shrinking and climbing career ladder is harder. The upside is that your neck is not on the line (well, most of the time) but you get to share credits for success pretty much all the same and in some cases even be the defecto face of the project in high profile events.
