Engineering to Corp Dev to???

Hi All,

This is my first post. Hope this is the right sub-forum. I'll share a brief background, my aspirations and my queries. Looking forward to the community's guidance!

Background/Context:

1. I'm 5 years out of undergrad. Undergrad's in non-ComputerScience Engineering. Not the most prestigious undergrad.
2. 5 YoE in a complex, customer-facing, high-tech engineering role. My company's not F100 but a niche (Test and Measurement, for those who know) h/w + s/w company that serves the **top** Semiconductor, Automotive and Aero/Def companies. My specialization is in the Semiconductors space. (think Intel, QComm, NXP, TI, etc.,)
3. I *might* have an opportunity to move to Corp Dev within my org at some entry role. We're not suuuper acquisitive, not sleepy either. 

Queries:

1. Given that I'm yet to do my MBA, what exit opps (with and without an MBA) am I looking at, post a brief stint in Corp Dev? I'm deliberately asking this question before stating my aspirations as I'd like the answers to be aspiration-blind. 
2. [Specific question] : After a brief Corp Dev stint, how challenging is it to move to a Corp Dev role in a slightly different industry? Not a massive switch like going to the food industry. But something like my current high-tech to say, internet companies/Software tech?

Aspirations:

1. So, I'm a multipotentialite (think Da Vinci....but minus the genius). My strongest innate skill is being good *at* people (peep my username). I'm curious, analytically effective and have the drive to apply myself to interesting jobs/challenges. In a nutshell, my interests are all over the place because I'm interested in a very wide variety of roles. Suffering from analysis paralysis. 
   1. I enjoy working in multifaceted roles, lean teams and with a variety of customers from all walks of life.
2. The closest I've been able to narrow down is VC - working at the intersection of tech, business, people. Plenty of 'diversity' in terms of the people I meet and getting to wear many hats. Early stage through Growth stage VC, specifically. 
3. Management Consulting seems attractive too for the same reason.

Given all the above, I'm curious to hear your thoughts!
