Aaron Flynn
Senior SDET at Brightpearl
Talk Description
In this session, I’ll share my own experiences from writing over the past year.
I’ll talk about my motivations, how I got started, and the benefits I’ve seen so far. I’m not a regular publisher of content, unlike some people I truly admire. I am early in my writing journey, and still figuring things out. I’m certain some of you have considered writing before, and like me, have decided against it for your own reasons. I hope that by sharing my story, I can inspire some of you to give it a try. You have stories worth sharing.
What you’ll learn
By the end of this talk, you'll be able to:
- Reasons to write
- How to get started
- The short and long term benefits for you and your career

Senior SDET at Brightpearl
I'm a Senior SDET at Brightpearl, embedded in a delivery team and working with the wider SDET guild. We support our merchants with selling their goods and services, and integrate with major E-commerce companies, e.g. Amazon, Shopify, Ebay.
I've worked across the UK and Ireland with different companies. Ranging from testing self service tills for supermarket chains, to building public services in the UK Civil service. I currently find myself drawn towards Quality Engineering and Test Coaching activities.
I am passionate about communities of practice. I believe that a strong, engaged community is the best way to support and develop a practice and its members. This naturally has led me to the Ministry of Testing(MoT) community.
I've written for MoT, and publish blogs on my personal site. Feel free to check it out for more about me and what I've been up to.
