Different route getting there, but I’m at a similar point with my career in tech. I inadvertently discovered conservation related volunteer work (invasive species management, native seed collecting/spreading, etc) in my area a few years ago and getting involved with that has been a huge outlet for me to contribute to the types of things I wish I was doing professionally. Might be worth looking into if you want to scratch the itch without a full career change.
