You may have a more "I don't know how I got here, but I kinda feel like somebody's slave" problem than a CRUD problem. If that's your problem, there's an eject button that will be a wild and scary ride, but you're likely to come out more healthy, excited, passionate and feeling alive. Go independent (as in quit, become a freelancer/consultant).
If you do, your initial contracts probably won't be on the forefront of changing the world; but I'm speculating that that's not your problem anyway.
After going independent, and learning all of the self-management and business skills and establishing a reputation you'll also get more project offers than you can do and you'll be able to choose ones that change the world more, and the impact of your projects will probably go up overtime. And at that point, you'll also be hunted by the world-changing organizations that seem so distant now (if you want to leave consulting and go back full-time)
