Ritchie Bros. Tech Stack
Global marketplace for used equipment auctions across industrial sectors
Ritchie Bros. operates a multi-channel auction platform connecting equipment sellers and buyers across construction, agriculture, mining, energy, and transportation. The tech stack reveals a modernization in motion: .NET Framework is being replaced by .NET Core, monolithic systems are decomposing into microservices, and workflow automation tools (n8n, Zapier, Alteryx) are entering the stack alongside Snowflake—suggesting a shift from transactional systems toward real-time inventory and process visibility. Hiring is heavily operations-focused (203 ops roles vs. 23 engineering), indicating the business is scaling marketplace logistics and compliance work faster than platform engineering.
