White-glove ecommerce engineering for high-growth brands.
Helixian is a Chicago-based software development agency specialized in ecommerce — compared to white-glove agencies, not offshore shops or generalist dev firms.
Who we serve
High-growth ecommerce brands in the $20M–$200M GMV range. Buyers include VP Engineering, CTO, Head of Ecommerce, and founders who need dependable execution without sacrificing quality. We serve clients across the United States, North America, and Europe — remote-friendly from Chicago.
Core services
- Roadmap Recovery and Commerce Audits — When growth teams are blocked by backlog debt, we map conversion bottlenecks, architecture risk, and delivery constraints into a prioritized Shopify execution plan.
- AI-Assisted Theme, Checkout, and App Engineering — We deliver high-velocity Shopify roadmap work with AI-assisted implementation and senior engineer validation across theme architecture, checkout extensibility, and custom apps.
- Data Integrations and Automation for Operating Scale — We connect Shopify with approved systems such as ERP, CDP, and lifecycle tooling so teams ship faster, reduce incidents, and keep implementation context accurate.
What makes Helixian different
AI adoption for ecommerce, delivered as full-stack enterprise engineering. We combine agentic workflows and MCP-connected implementation context with senior human validation on every release — practical AI-assisted delivery, not AI hype.
