Like everything in the physical life, it's all about degrees. As a matter of fact, people with a high ASQ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism_Spectrum_Quotient) are very common in software industry.

There is even an online test

http://psychology-tools.com/autism-spectrum-quotient/

I scored one point less than the minimum to be considered in the Asperger spectrum, and I hadn't had any "symptom" in my infancy, so I wouldn't be surprise if you already had hired an Aspie without knowing.
