There is a great book about this topic that I highly recommend:
"Developing Talents: Careers for Individuals with Asperger Syndrome and High-Functioning Autism" by Temple Grandin, Kate Duffy, and Tony Attwood. It not only has career ideas and descriptions, but includes strategies to use to make the workplace more comfortable for a person with Asperger's Syndrome or Autism.

Temple Grandin also briefly discusses this topic in this article: "Teaching Tips for Children and Adults with Autism" - http://www.autism.org/temple/tips.html

Other favorite resources include:
