Maybe move into sales if that is possible, very few people in sales are technical enough and let companies down, you however sound like might know enough to answer those board room sale pitches which require technical details. You can also then find out more about what the customer wants and then use that feedback to drive the technical direction of the product. By being able to code, you can randomly QA the product by getting customer feedback when you drop in on a customer and talk to their users (if that is possible), and you can then pass this feedback back to the dev team. Whilst off the shelf software is mass market, it doesnt always lead to lock ins, custom built software does lead to lock ins and that protects income streams for all.
