Hrushikesh Pokala

A Senior Lead with 13 years in the software trenches and a Master’s in Data Analytics, I build intelligent systems that move beyond the hype and into production. My expertise lies at the intersection of Deep Learning and Neural Networks, where I currently pioneer "Reinforcement Learning Brain" methodologies and MCP architectures to scale engineering expertise. When I’m not fine-tuning models, I’m either perfecting my backhand on the table tennis court or navigating the backroads of America—having driven my Tesla through nearly every state, I’m as comfortable optimizing cross-country charging routes as I am architecting complex datasets.

const [cost, setCircuitBreaker] = useFinOps(): A Guide to FinOps for Frontend Architects

We’ve all seen flashy web demos of AI agents streaming dynamic React components. But when you ship these features to production, your biggest bottleneck isn’t prompt engineering-it’s the cloud invoice. A single rogue frontend re-render loop or an unoptimized context window can quietly drain thousands of dollars in API costs overnight.
My talk introduces a pragmatic, full-stack `` architecture built directly into modern React applications. I will show you how to build a two-tier defense system: using Next.js Server Components for semantic caching and dynamic LLM routing on the server, paired with custom client-side hooks that act as financial circuit breakers. You will walk away with a production-ready blueprint to build powerful agentic features that are both technically robust and financially viable.
