You are in the best possible position and have the ability to craft your career any way you would like.
Your technical skills could command a high salary at a fairly stable company that would provide ample time for extracurricular philosophizing.
You could apply philosophical principles to starting a company. It all depends on what areas interest you.
You could also go the academic route and pursue those ideas in the comfort of the academy.
Personally, I think technical skills free people to apply philosophy. Capitalism and open markets allow you to build whatever you like and test it with your peers. Like I said at the beginning, technical skills allow you to do anything you can imagine. Good luck.
Just decide who you would be and then do what you must do:)

Also -- if you're like me and you end up feeling guilty for making a shameless run for money, you have a set of skills that you can step outside and help any non-profit with. Its what drew me to law as well -- I figured I can be helpful to many that otherwise lack money for these sorts of things.
