About extra roles: Just give them to the Gallente. This concern " giving them a job that was interesting and valuable but only available for Gallente and Minmatar felt unfair" is completely without merit. There is nothing unfair about recognizing that the best race in eve is the best. It sort of like saying its unfair to give the fastest driver in a race a trophy.
But if you must be equal: If you want to add extra roles like "fitting service", "fleet hangar" and "specialized cargo" to use up all the extra interons: Add 2 or 3 new ships to the other races just by adding a II or a III to the names of existing ships and use the same models. That would get five roles and five industrials for each race with not too much work.

As you say, its resist vs repair. In the case of Indies, it would have had to be: resist vs nothing because Caldari/Amarr have no ship. This would have been the only case in the whole game of one race having access to a role that wasn't balanced in some way for the other races with another ship.
.....
What about EW battleships? One one race has one.

Special purpose bays - This will be for Hoarder, Iteron Mark II, III, and IV. We wanted to do this originally, but held back because of concerns about racial inequality. Based on feedback I'm now hoping you guys will be fine with this inequality, as long as it isn't so favored towards Gallente that no one would ever train another race for hauling.
This is as much an issue as people having to train Caldari ship skills if they want to fly a powerful ECM or missile boat. People keep saying this but it is simply not true. It would be if there was a counterpart for the other races. If you don't want to train missiles, its okay because you can train lasers. In this case, there is no option for Caldari or Amarr to counter balance, even if it was a different bay.
The easiest way to not have race favoritism is to add ships. Like a "Hoarder II" that has a different special bay than the Hoarder. It would use the same model as the current Hoarder until Art can get to fixing it.
