I would say that, given that you’re already doing some projects in the EA & software development space, that you should consider building that network more comprehensively.
At the moment you are coaching, creating a volunteer board and listing impactful companies which is a few projects but you could build the ecosystem for EA & Software. This could be similar to what the EA Consulting Network is doing, with their recent hire of a full time person.
I think this would hit a few of your requirements of being meta, not earning to give, involves software knowledge, early stage project but not as stressful as a startup and with coaching/advising. Although it would involve remote work but that could be solved by having an EA Israel coworking space. Potentially this could also grow to more than 1 person if you’re seeing signs of impact.
Some things I think you could do as part of building the EA Software ecosystem.
You could be the go to person when someone involved in software wants to get more involved in EA
The go to person when someone at an EA org wants to find software people or know more about the space
You could set up a mentorship network similar to WANBAM
You could have more in depth research on how to have impact in tech. 80,000 hours can only dedicate so much time and limited knowledge of the global tech ecosystem to this area, some of their software articles haven’t been updated since 2015
Newsletter updating people in EA & software on job/volunteer opportunities, startup ideas, stories of impact
If this sounds potentially interesting let me know and we can chat in more depth about ways of making this happen.

This sounds very interesting. I’m moving in that direction slowly
