Quarterhill Inc. Tech Stack
Transportation infrastructure software and tolling systems operator
Quarterhill operates transportation infrastructure across tolling, enforcement, and connected-vehicle domains through consolidated brands (IRD, ETC, Sensor Line, Icoms, VDS). The tech stack reveals a dual-layer architecture: Windows + Active Directory + Azure for enterprise operations, paired with Linux (Red Hat, Ubuntu, CentOS) + edge-compute tooling (Yocto, VMware) for field deployments. Active adoption of Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform signals a shift toward containerized, infrastructure-as-code operational models—critical for a company managing 24/7 uptime requirements across distributed tolling networks. Engineering hiring (10 open roles) outpaces sales (1 role), reflecting internal scaling priorities around real-time data processing and system reliability.
