Open-Source Contribution Inquiry

Subject: Inquiry regarding open-source contribution opportunities – Taha Valiji

Hello OpenVINO Maintainers and Community,

My name is Taha Valiji, and I am a second-year student at VJTI Mumbai. I am writing to let you know that I am interested in contributing to the OpenVINO ecosystem.

I have established a technical foundation in Generative AI, LangChain, and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), and I have experience working with PostgreSQL. Having previously contributed to open source during Hacktoberfest, I am familiar with the collaborative workflow of version control and peer reviews.

Given my background in GenAI and Python-based AI orchestration, I am particularly interested in:

• Optimising LLM inference using OpenVINO.
• Integrating OpenVINO with RAG pipelines or LangChain.
• Improving documentation or tutorials for new developers.

Could you please point me toward any "good first issues" or specific modules where my skillset in GenAI and RAG would be most helpful?

Thank you for your time and for the incredible work you do on this toolkit. I look forward to contributing to the project!

Best regards,

Taha Valiji
