Rodrigo, First and foremost welcome aboard. It is great to have someone of your calibre join our community. Contributing guidelines is the way to go. AFAIK, we do not have a system to mark jiras for beginners. But one idea to get your feet wet is to develop example applications in Malhar https://github.com/apache/incubator-apex-malhar
You can check the demos directory. If there is a use case that you want to code on, get going. A lot of documentation is available on http://apex.incubator.apache.org/docs.html Feel free to post questions on dev@ or user@ as and when you need help. As your comfort level goes up, feel free to take up more jiras.
