The Brick Tech Stack
Canada's largest furniture, appliances, and electronics retailer with 230+ locations
The Brick operates a sprawling retail network across Canada with 230+ stores, 6 distribution centres, and 5,000–10,000 employees. The company is in high-velocity hiring mode (152 roles posted in the last 30 days), heavily weighted toward sales (68 roles) and operations (59 roles), signaling aggressive expansion and store rollout. The tech stack is legacy-heavy (Active Directory, Exchange, Access, WSUS) with modern point-solutions bolted in (Salesforce, Zendesk, Shopify), indicating a retail operator still bridging on-premise infrastructure with cloud tools—a common pattern in multi-location retailers managing franchise consistency and operational complexity.
