That's a more complex question than you might think. On the whole
OpenStack does not need more developers writing new features. What
we *are* in desperate need of is developers thoroughly reviewing
proposed patches, writing (good) tests, documenting what's already
there, fixing bugs, and helping new users and operators/deployers by
answering their questions on mailing lists, in IRC, and on the Ask
OpenStack site.

The fastest way to make your mark is to get involved with
cross-project (sometimes referred to as "horizontal") programs like
documentation, quality assurance, project infrastructure, release
cycle management, et cetera.

Also, welcome aboard!
