This person sounds like a future manager in the making. I've dealt with them in the past. If you're lucky, they'll somehow manage to find a better paying job elsewhere. More likely though is that if you want to get away from them you'll need to find a better paying job elsewhere, or change teams if possible.

To a certain extent, dealing with incompetent/adversarial colleagues can be a learning experience. You get better at designing/coding/communicating in a more idiot-proof fashion. But after a while it starts to hold you back as instead of being able grow, you instead have to stay behind and clean up after the others.
