I've thought that Harry would ultimately be a DADA teacher for 
Hogwarts for a long time; he thinks of Hogwarts as "home", he 
regrets leaving every year (and not just because he has to go back 
to the Dursleys). It just seems a perfect fit... an auror may be out 
of a job once after Voldemort is gone, professional Quidditch is a 
possibility, but it seems a waste of so many other talents that 
Harry has! Still, maybe he can be the DADA teacher and a Quidditch 
coach! :-)
