"Have any of you made a similar jump?"
People get hired as PMs at large tech companies from all sorts of backgrounds. My pre-PM background is only slightly less varied than yours. Email me if you want to chat or want specific advice.
I'd recommend you pick up a couple of PM interview books: (i) Decode and Conquer, (ii) Cracking the PM interview. They aren't just useful for interview preparation, but helpful in thinking whether you want to do this sort of job, how to prepare your CV etc.
