# Matthias Kauzmann
Backend developer bringing architectural clarity to growing monoliths.

## About

Matthias Kauzmann builds central pharmaceutical services as a backend developer at Redcare Pharmacy. He focuses on pragmatic system design, balancing maintainable architecture with real-world product constraints.

He started out in early platform engineering, helping teams adopt self-service cloud infrastructure. Now, his focus often lands on bringing clarity to growing codebases. Matthias advocates for structuring existing monoliths using Hexagonal Architecture. By using tools like ArchUnit to strictly enforce domain rules, he helps teams create clean modular boundaries without paying the operational overhead of full microservices.
