I did some googling and found a program called AutoKey (Autokey - Linux utility for text substitution hotkeys) near the top of the list.

Rather than a hotkey using Ctrl+Shift+K I chose to assign the abbreviation kz which is automatically expanded into <kbd></kbd>+.

It is simply installed using:

sudo apt install autokey-gtk

It installs in Launcher and the screen is pretty simple to use:

Autokey
