Seniority really isn't worth much on a software team because no matter how high you climb, there's always someone above you who can override your decisions.
Once you have stayed at a company for more than 3 years, leaving for greener pastures is never counted against you. If you think it's good for your career, do it.

However, its not clear how much room there is to move up. I like what I'm doing, but worried I'll get stuck while skills atrophy.
