Hey, thanks for your input.

So can I conclude from what you said, that I should have my contributions profile ready for when an opportunity is open at a company I'm contributing to, I have a higher chance to get the opportunity compared to non-contributors?

no, the conclusion actually is to make friends with the core developers. contributing good code is one way to do that, but writing excellent documentation, or filling some other need in the community can also work.
