It depends on the employer, but usually experience counts, not training.

So, you have _no_ problems with how the kernel works for you and your
systems?  If not, then work on fixing that.

If everything is fine, then look at the list of janitor projects, or the
drivers/staging/*/TODO files, and start working on them if you don't
know what else to do.  After getting some changes done there you might
find some areas that interest you and you will know what to work on as
it will be apparent.

good luck,
