You could be a technical PM. Bit of a “day walker” with a foot in both the tech and people worlds.

It seems like all the technical PM jobs require that you’ve already held that title for several years. Or maybe I take job descriptions too literally.

Apply, apply, apply. Let them make the decision if you’re qualified or not.

I appreciate the encouragement!

I have been in a position to hire people repeatedly, and I've done a fair bit of job hopping myself in the last few years.

Never let a job description hold you back from applying. You could bring other things to the company, you can acquire knowledge that you currently lack.

Apply, discuss and see how it goes.
