Solr/Lucene is big. Really big. I'd think seriously about taking something you're interested in/know about, finding a JIRA that you'd like to work on and diving in. Plus there aren't very many architecture docs.
Your characterization of the realms of responsibility is pretty accurate. Have you seen: https://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToContribute? A somewhat painful but "safe" way to get your feet wet is to look at the coverage reports on jenkins and see what code is not tested in the junit tests and...write a test. At least I think the coverage reports are still there.
