Rare for me to recommend, but trying to become a professor could be a good choice? In graduate school there was a professor who had lost the use of their hands - and similarly used voice-to-text software to code and write, but it was much harder to code with than write.
They actually started the PhD because of this hindrance, wanting to become a professor because they could get away with less coding: instead guiding students on what to do next and pair-programing with them with the student doing the typing. Maybe an option to consider?
Generally echoing /u/innominato5090 there are probably a lot of teams that work on disability & accessibility options/research, where your background may be seen as a particular strength and a rare combination of skills.
