How can I get a job in RE-PE as a tech PM/commercial real estate owner?

Hey everyone, been following this forum as a guest for a while but I'm ready to jump into the conversation.

Im a tech product manager at a series A startup. We're doing cool stuff, but I've always been far more interested in finance and real estate. I saved aggressively during the first few years of my career as a SWE and used that $ to lever up and buy 1.9M in commercial RE (2 properties). Those properties are now worth around 2.5M. They cash flow, but not enough that I’m going to quit my day job (they are so low maintenance). I'm now very low on cash. I can’t refi due to prepayment penalties, and really don’t want to - I’d like to pay off sooner and hold long term.

My tech PM job pays pretty 💩 but I did it for the people management / creativity piece of the job.

I would love to do what I love - real estate investing, analysis, and relationship building for the next 5-10 years while I learn, build my cash position + continue buying in my asset class.

So, the question: I live in Boulder Co, what would you do if you were me to get a great RE-PE job?

Thanks!
