Work as an independent contractor. You are not an employee and even if you create IP for your client, they do not own your off time. For example, if you had two clients, they would not own the others ip.
If they send you a blanket ip agreement as a contractor, modify it to only agree to the created ip during working hours.
Rules are:
Not on company equipment
Not on company time
Work on projects not related to your day job
Being employee status is trickier than a independent consultant though.
