Even in a team where there is no architect or tech lead, there's room for leadership. What parts of the process don't flow smoothly? How well is information shared within the team and to other groups that you work with? Who makes decisions about the planning and organization of dev projects? Who brings new hires up-to-speed and mentors them? There are lots of places where you can take on more than just dev work and you never know where that can lead. Mind you, I don't see anything wrong with being a Senior Dev if that's what you're happy doing. In general, I think there's value in an experienced developer who enjoys their work, can articulate technical concerns to the non-technical, mentor new tech hires, and carry some institutional memory.
