ML/AI is the hottest new meme that fits your requirements, you need to be quite autistic to enjoy it though.

You could be some kind IT manager at a doggo shelter and help them find homes for doggos in some capacity. Then, when you're not working, you could pet and gib treats to the doggos that no one loves yet.

network engineering

>is interesting
if you like networking, that depends on you
>pays well
if you know your shit, which usually correlates with your liking of networking
>actually contributes to society
if you work for a carrier you enable all kinds of socially relevant groups to work together (hospitals, fire departments, ...)

the catch is, you don't get into network engineering without network engineering experience, so usually you got into touch with it at your former job (jack of all trades sysadmin usually)
also its high stress, if you fuck up, everything goes down, surgeries have to be delayed, etc

Cybernetics (you are on time to be a leader, since is mostly inexplored besides pure academia, however it allows for excelent frameworks)
