Ask HN: How to find “senior” jack of all trades jobs?

I have been in my current role for about 6 years. While I wasn't hired for it specifically, my average week has my time split between product management, managing a small team to develop those products, ux design, and front-end JS/Python development. It's really a roll where I am all over the place and I do really enjoy it. However, due to the Covid reality in the world right now I am starting to think my time here is up. How can I find another job that isn't specialized to one specific roll as I really do enjoy being a jack of all trades master of none and would like to continue to do that in my next role. I'm also fairly experienced with 16 years of "jack of all trade" type positions.

It does not make business sense for Apple or Google to allow them for obvious reasons. They get money from in app purchases. If every app was a PWA they would lose a lot of revenue. Even for businesses that are ad supported they are better of with native apps. You can block ads on a PWA very easily because it's a web app. With a mobile app good luck switching the ads off. Now, I get the technical advantages of a PWA but it seems to me that it has failed to take off because of the business reasons above. Is my assessment correct?
