Thanks for volunteering!

One of the easiest ways to contribute is to review patches already submitted in
the commitfest application. See https://commitfest.postgresql.org/
There may be patches in the list that have some perl component that you could
review. Even if the patch itself does not contain any perl code, you could
always consider whether the patch would be improved with a TAP test, which is
our perl regression test system. Testing of that kind might usefully expose
flaws in the patch even if the TAP tests you write are themselves not accepted
into the project.
