In this episode of The Ecommerce Toolbox: Expert Perspectives, Matt Ezyk, Senior Director of Engineering, Ecommerce at Hanna Andersson, shares how heritage brands can modernize ecommerce platforms without sacrificing reliability, performance, or customer experience.

Matt reveals the “silent killers” that quietly erode site conversion, from friction-filled checkout flows to cross-team misalignment, and how he’s tackling them through selective modernization, API-first architecture, and a disciplined focus on site speed. He also cuts through the AI hype, explaining why clean, connected customer data is the non-negotiable foundation for any meaningful AI adoption.
