I was in a roughly similar situation, I got a job as a (pretty junior) management consultant. Learned a lot about how different businesses work but had to deal with being bossed around by people 10yrs younger than me and realize that nobody cared about whatever specialized knowledge I had from my PhD. (To be clear, this was probably the best thing for me to break out of the bubble I was in).

The big upside was that it was a job that you don't need any specific credentials to get, and it gave me the perspective and "soft skills" - really just learning how to work in a team outside an academic setting - to get a tech job that could use some of my academic background as well as the business experience I had.
