  There is a lot of things to if you have good grasp of technology a company runs on and you are intelligent and able to work on some complementary abilities. Which is what you should be doing -- there are diminishing returns in learning more technology, but you get huge returns from learning completely new skills that are complementary. Most of those things rely on some additional management/leadership skills. Yes, manager, tech lead, architect, startup co-founder etc. That's natural, because that's how you get more leverage to have more impact/return for your skills. But that's not the only way to make more money. If you don't like management path you could, for example, become highly paid consultant.
