I worked in high end (food/event)service but my employer at the time had very diverse partnerships, one of them was offering this service and had the programmers themselves be present at the auctions too. But then they grew and couldn’t fill all requests and we struck a partnership. I fit right in because of my above average IT knowledge in comparison with other service colleagues.
There’s a ton of offline"-online" auction services now a day, live bidding whatever you call it. You could google a couple of them inform them of your interest.
The job itself was fun, so many objects I had never seen before! Very cool. It was also stressful, auctioning is live and sometimes the lot being auctioned off is worth a lot. Super fun to see your live-auction-system shit itself right in the middle of a 3 way bidding war
How did you get into this job? It actually sounds quite fun, except it’s something I’d never have considered doing because I didn’t know it existed.

Just describing it sounds fun. “I am an in person online bidder” “what?” “You heard me…”
