Head of Engineering for Fabricate

About the author

Mark Brocato is a software developer and entrepreneur best known as the founder of Mockaroo, one of the world’s leading synthetic data generators, launched in 2014. The idea for Mockaroo came while Mark was watching QA engineers struggle to test complex life science workflows at a startup called BioFortis, inspiring him to make realistic test data easier for everyone. With over two decades in software development, he’s built tools for developers at Sencha, Layer0, and beyond. In 2024, Mark launched Fabricate, the AI-powered synthetic data platform that was acquired by Tonic.ai in 2025, where Mark continues to lead its development. A Ruby, JavaScript, and Rust developer, he divides his time between Sparta, New Jersey, and Tallinn, Estonia.
