From a computer science degree and long nights on site, to leading one of Australia’s fastest-growing construction tech companies — this is the story of Tim Cocaro, founder and CEO of Canibuild.
In this episode of The Good Builder Podcast, host Aaron Ng sits down with Tim to unpack how an idea born out of frustration on a Canberra building site turned into a platform now used by thousands of builders across Australia, including G.J. Gardner Homes, to quote faster, build trust, and win clients more easily.
Tim shares the lightbulb moment that changed his career, the lessons from taking an Aussie innovation global, and how Canibuild is even being used to help communities rebuild after the devastating California wildfires.
Whether you’re a builder, supplier, or just someone who loves a good success story, this episode shows how real-world experience, humility, and a bit of tech know-how can reshape an entire industry.
