How to deal with technological snobbery and return love to solving business problems?

Faced with the fact that I was no longer inspired by business tasks. I just can't solve them.
Brief summary: worked in small and medium-sized companies, solved business problems like crazy, did not grow professionally, demanded something more from companies. I wanted growth, I found a project with a good approach to development and a lot of refactoring, I would love to work there now, but the funding was stopped. After that, I got on a sad project with a hellish approach to development and business management, got bogged down in debugging and "should be done yesterday", could not stand even three months. Now in search.
And they gave me a test task. And I did it day and night. And licked as best he could. Designed enough, I was pleased with the result as an elephant. But it didn't last long. I misunderstood the text of the test task and implemented the main functionality differently than it was described in the task.
Actually, now I realized for myself that I had completely moved away from business. I am interested in optimizing, designing, refactoring, I am very critical of mistakes in the code and cannot work quickly. In a word, an ideal candidate for elimination from any employer. At the same time, I do not consider myself some kind of super brain and mega architect, and my fails at interviews prove this. For example, I have not mastered a single task on a piece of paper in more than five years of experience. Imposter syndrome has never left me.
How to find a balance and return to solving business problems? What type of company to look for a job? What to do to move away from overengineering? And is it necessary? Is it curable?

Look for a large grocery company, not an outsourced bodyshop. Do not contact Mrs. sector and television. Look for an office with a large proprietary product, whose business is not built on its sale/implementation.
