Art Wells is a senior software engineer in Portland with 12 years of focused experience building and rescuing e-commerce platforms, especially large Magento-based systems. He has led cross-functional migrations and engineered high-throughput solutions—from a RESTful shopping cart and ERP/payment integrations to an algorithmic coupon system processing millions of single-use coupons—while serving as a hands-on technical lead at Roku. An entrepreneur and consultant, he’s salvaged troubled e-commerce projects and built bespoke tools (including 3D product configurators and integrations with social and payment APIs) for clients like Wieden+Kennedy. His background spans web, security, and product engineering dating back to the late 1990s, and he’s currently exploring Elixir applied to e-commerce—bringing a pragmatic blend of systems thinking, security awareness, and creative problem-solving rooted in a BA in Philosophy and Mathematics.
