I’ve been supply chain consulting for 6 years. Is there a logical pivot in to a tech or non tech role at a FAANG that is worth the career shift?

I have extensive SQL background but not much else that is technically related other than solution architecture.

Does program management make sense as a career shift?

I think it could work, ops at Apple is heavily supply chain. Check out roles in either logistics, supply demand management, or readiness.
