Here's what I said to a similar request in the IRC chat on another day, I'm h01ger there.
<someone> How do we start contributing to the Debian reproducible. The outreachy website
doesn't provide specific details about the project.
<h01ger> thats intentional, as we are looking for contributors who can find their own
way to do contributions
<h01ger> the irc channel crowd is very good at (some) specific questions but probably
noone will be able to tell you what exactly to work on. *you* need to pick
something. we have many issue trackers, with plenty of issues in them.
<h01ger> and we have issues not yet tracked
<h01ger> if you have a specific question about something specific, by all means do ask.
<h01ger> most of our code (but not all) lives on https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds
<h01ger> https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/ and https://reproducible-builds.org/contribute/
and https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/ and https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/
and https://lists.reproducible-builds.org/ are all urls you should visit
https://www.outreachy.org/may-2019-august-2019-outreachy-internships/communities/debian/#reproducible-builds
shows some areas of possible contributions. Please pick one which suites you!

tschau,
