When we ramp people up we usually like to do a combination of pair programing with them and allowing them to work on small bug tickets. The pair programming allows them to see how a more senior dev gets their work done which can be really useful for helping the new dev form some good habits. Letting them work on some bugs of their own encourages them to start developing their problem solving skills. Plus, it forces them to get into the codebase and start to know it.

Good Luck!!!
