Switching from data engineering to consulting without an MBA - which firms are realistic?

Three years into a data engineering job in Texas, I have been practicing cases for two months. Structuring feels natural, but my hypotheses come out sounding canned and I still stumble explaining the math out loud. For anyone who switched from tech into consulting without a top-tier MBA: did you apply to MBB at all or did you start with boutiques and Big4 practices? Curious what got your CV past screening when your background was not a typical feeder role.
