Usually you don't have an option other than leaving, most organisations don't let seniors keep coding and nothing else.

Either move up the ladder or leave.

Non-coding architects were typically a by-track rather than superiors to ICs. Though I imagine some of them could think they were. Product managers also often don't have proper reports in the sense line managers would.

  • Non coding architects, aka Solution Architects tend to be the next career level after Technical Architect in most organisations I have been part of.

    No one would jump directly into a Solution Architect.

    PMs yeah, those have had various backgrounds how they came there.

    Again, on my personal experience.
