I asked questions, here's their answer:
Our company used to be known as onShore Development back in the day, some people might know us by that name. As we evolved as a company we ultimately re-branded around what had become our principal product offering.
My title is "CTO" but in a company as small as ours that is more inclusive than exclusive. Practically speaking I am the Architect/Development lead.
We have been a lisp shop since the 90s, starting off on CMUCL but porting to SBCL over a decade ago now. For giggles I have also ported our app to ABCL but have never taken that into production. Lisp is integral to the design of our application. For example, we have managed to develop a framework where a RESTy API is simply a side-effect of the architecture rather than a separate layer.
While the back-end core of our application is implemented in SBCL, the front end is AngularJS. We don't shy away from other technologies. Some back end services are implemented in Java or NodeJS; whatever make the most sense.
We use Postmodern for persistence. Being a scheduling application the local-time library is a big deal for us. We have contributed a bit to both IIRC. We've also published a few things on GitHub which people are welcome to use, but I am a bit introspective and hermetic. I'm not a great open-source contributor. I suppose that's something I should work on.
