If you like the big theoretical approach, you might want to go into an architect or principal engineer roles. These typically involve higher-level considerations of systems design, data flow, etc. without delving into the tedious boilerplate (that&#x27;s for lowly devs! &#x2F;s)<p>Of course if you want to get out of programming altogether, you could try writing a book about your experiences or whatnot and market it as a career advice.<p>Or you could live my dream and go back to school for chemistry and become the High Priest of LSD
