A strong candidate would bring initiative and ownership to the development of our products. In fact, we will be especially enthusiastic about candidates with multifaceted skill sets. If you’re a design-focused thinker who could lead the conversation on UX, a strong data visualization developer, or a great visual designer with some front-end chops, we would love to meet you. If you know astronomy, great! If not, you’re our target demographic.

I think the reason why the Inferno is solely taught is becaue it's just so long a text, and the characters Dante interacts with in his descent are more familiar to an early student of the classics than the later volumes.
I would absolutely recommend reading Purgatorio and Paradiso if you have a chance. Though it's long, it's quick reading, and sublime is an understatement.
