PROFILE

Tomislav Plavcic

Tomislav Plavcic engineered robust end-to-end testing and automation for the percona/everest repository, focusing on database management, upgrade validation, and backup workflows. He developed and stabilized test suites for features like Point-In-Time Recovery, RBAC, and external database access, using TypeScript, Playwright, and Kubernetes. His work included integrating AWS S3 and MinIO for backup testing, enhancing CI/CD reliability, and introducing structured test reporting for traceability. By refining test infrastructure, increasing coverage, and reducing flakiness, Tomislav enabled faster feedback loops and safer releases. His contributions demonstrated depth in backend integration, test automation, and environment-aware configuration for complex cloud-native systems.
