I’m in a similar position and have an option #4 that would be my own preferred route, but I’ve only recently started thinking about it.

#4 Partner in as a tech lead or cofounder on someone else’s early stage idea.

The question is how to find that person. Angle list? Product Hunt? Who has some ideas?

I think once you’re working among the right group, you might find more startup founders to work with in a way that is inline with what you seem to want.
