Speaker Bio
Paul McLellan is a Solution Architect and Product Manager at Suite Engine, where he bridges product strategy, sales enablement, and cross-functional leadership for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central solutions. With over 30 years of experience spanning global eCommerce, distribution, payment processing, and software design, he specializes in overseeing integrated solutions that connect ERPs to the platforms where commerce actually happens — Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, and beyond.
Before joining Suite Engine, Paul owned and operated LightBulbs.com, a global online distribution business he built from the ground up over three decades. That firsthand experience — managing inventory across warehouses, reconciling marketplace settlements, and navigating the realities of multi-channel fulfillment — gives him a perspective that most solution architects simply don't have. He's lived on the customer side of every integration problem he now solves.
His career in technology started long before eCommerce existed. In 1991, Paul taught himself to code by writing video games on a Commodore Amiga, sparking a lifelong obsession with how software should work and — just as importantly — how it should feel. That user-first design philosophy runs through everything he does, from API architecture to the pixel-level details of a UI.
Paul lives in Minnesota with his wife and nine children — so when he talks about managing complexity at scale, he means it in every sense.
