The cofounder of Symbolics, Dan Weinreb, apparently works there as well. They also seem to do a lot of Lisp programming. Seems like a pretty cool company.

However, the puzzles seem weighted to requiring a solution using Java.

And according to Dan Weinreb's blog, they will most likely not use Common Lisp again on another ITA project:

That's a shame.
