Becoming a better engineer
I’m great at leetcode and sys design discussions. But have probably shipped very few lines of code at this point in my career. Yep. Seriously. I have coasted a lot by just doing corporate politics, architecture discussions, and design docs etc
this has led to me feeling impostor syndrome but also sad and empty inside. I contemplate leaving SWE path. But I want to be a better developer not just leetcoder

You are tying external variables to your internal state( happiness). I agree they have an effect. If you have survived till 7 years then you should appreciate that. You are good at that. As to your change in career, Imho it would be a distraction. It won’t make you happy or give you a lifetime of happiness
