The Intempt Handbook
How we work, what we value, and what you can count on. The deep-sea field guide to life at Intempt.
Welcome aboard. Blu lives in the Pacific off San Francisco, where the city's landmarks sank long ago and became a reef. This handbook is the field guide to that world: how we work, what we value, and the promises we make each other.
It is written to be read, not filed. Everything here is real, and if something you need is missing, tell People Ops and we will add it.
How we do things
- We trust you with your time. Generous defaults, few rules. Rest beats counting hours.
- The same rules apply to everyone. Benefits do not depend on role, country, or belief.
- You own outcomes, not shifts. Small team, no layers between you and the result.
- This is a living document. When a policy stops serving people, we change it.
Where to start
- Values and Our work principles: what we care about and how we decide.
- 9 rare traits: the qualities we look for in every hire.
- How we work: process, rituals, and flow.
- Paid time off, Compensation, and Perks: pay, time off, and benefits.
- Jobs at Intempt: open roles, including the Site Reliability Engineer.
