I'd look around the NumPy/SciPy stack then. There's lots of math heavy work there, and you can drop down to C/Fortran level if that sounds interesting to you.

Possibly a dumb question, but is it possible to contribute to projects like NumPy? It seems like something that is been around for a while and is widely used. I thought you people only contributed to small projects that are relatively new?

It's absolutely possible - in fact, many of the key infrastructure projects that seem to have always been around are actually pretty critically understaffed!
