Hi Perrin,
you might want to start with https://www.debian.org/intro/help to decide on what you exactly want to do to work on contributing to Debian, which is a rather broad concept.
If indeed you want to help package software, which is the topic of this list, your next step is probably to read and understand https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/.
To be honest with you, nobody will take you by the hand from A to Z, there is a fair amount of self-learning involved, but if you have specific questions about packaging, ask them here, and you shall get specific answers.
Hope this helps,
Eric
PS: allowing myself to make your subject slightly more specific.

Hello. I am new to most all of Linux but have experience developing software. If someone is available to mentor and/or sponsor that would be awesome. Trying to get the ball rolling with contributing :-)
