Example #1,342,683 of why networking is important. Those are the people you contact. An old boss, an old coworker, a friend who's also in tech. Keep up with them and bounce ideas off one another. It'll help keep you sharp.

This surely sounds great! I might just take this suggestion.
Time to leave and surround yourself with more experienced and smarter people than yourself. This is how we learn and grow.

Yup, to be smart and intelligent, you need to surround yourself with smartness and intelligence.
There is no reason that other Team members can not TRAIN to use the techniques that you have apparently developed to achieve results that satisfy the customer and are profitable for the company you support. I have found that competition and metrics that are internally published and coaching on proper technique used achieve to mission success and customer satisfaction. Use of lean tools like estimating TACT TIME based on the customer’s needs help to weed out the weaker links in process control that lead to a happy customer.
Train the team to be responsive to metrics that MUST be posted to encourage teams to be competitive, but QUALITY must be your priority.
IF you are lonely at the top, then you should consider becoming the trainer, quality technician or quality manager
Understand the customer needs, meet or exceed the customer’s expectations, always deliver superior product on time.
If you achieve these expectations you will be rewarded.
You think that it’s lonely at the top, it’s much lonelier at the bottom.
Own it.
At some point you have to become comfortable relying on your own knowledge and instincts. You'll develop confidence once you get used to it. And you can always reach out to professional contacts and bounce ideas off them.
Books and outside friends. It is lonely when you're the one that knows. No one at my work understands what is like to deal with the world and it's shipping process. I wanna talk about a 5601. No one else does. ha ha. Maybe notice at work who takes an interest and be a mentor 🤔

Is there any way for you to get a mentor? I think it's always important to plan and support your personal next growth steps

That loneliness is real. I have seen senior people build informal peer circles outside their team. Mentors, industry groups, even former colleagues. Leadership without sounding boards becomes heavy quickly.
Cool seeing the other side of this coin. I’m newer to my team and in my role, but im in a Senior position. I always feel like I ask too many questions and should know more than I do at this point. I’m well aware of the gap between myself and those who’ve been in this role longer and I feel like an imposter.
Sometimes the most inexperienced can shed new light on a problem. Just because in your head you're smarter or better than those around you, isn't necassarily true.
Chat gpt can help. It knows more than you.
Soon it will replace you. Good luck.
