From a pure standpoint? Any company that makes tech - hardware or software - is a tech company.
From a usage perspective? Any company that heavily utilizes tech in their day to day operations is a tech company too.
From a software engineer's career perspective? "Tech company" has become a term often used here, and usually refers to a company whose core business involves software engineers, and treats them as respected first class citizens.
Companies that fall under the first two descriptions may or may not fall under the third.
