Developing software solutions for too many years. The majority of my time has been either Managing Software Development efforts or as a Software Quality Engineer.

I fully agree that the best of both worlds can be had in a half & half role (technical lead, dev lead or managing engineer). The stress level is higher because of the ownership of the team or project but you still get to do what you enjoy and that is develop software & people.
