Before quitting, can you find ways of operating in your current role that bespeak senior level ability? Like introducing a new framework, or doing a bigger than expected refactor that helps other departments as part of your regular work? Can you propose something to a project manager that opens up new horizons? Start over-achieving well beyond the expectations, and see if that finally gets you the recognition you want. You don't need a formal title to get the respect and permission to act that a senior dev has. Look up primus inter pares - it's a great position to occupy in an org.
