I was also going to suggest that because that is probably going to be what I do next year when I am in college (while maintaining contact with my team, of course.).

It seems like most of your work is with the technical side. But because of your longtime experience in FRC, you might be a valuable mentor for team management and organization. This could be especially beneficial to rookie teams who have not established procedures, rules, schedules etc. yet. You'd be just as helpful (specifically in the offseason, as others have suggested) and probably spend fewer days working during the build season. (Although I can't say that they won't recruit you to help them full-time.)
