Azure Cloud Intern

About Salthook Systems

Our main product is a payroll and timekeeping app for hourly workforces, sold by subscription and supported from High Point. Founded in 2002, the business writes the billing, metering and customer portal software that small water and electric utilities run on. Code review is required on every pull request, and nobody merges their own changes.

The internship
