Josh Juneau has been developing software and database systems for several years. Database application development and sophisticated web apps have been the focus of his career since the beginning. Early in his career, he became an Oracle database administrator and adopted the PL/SQL language for performing administrative tasks and developing applications for Oracle database. In an effort to build more complex solutions, he began to incorporate Java into his PL/SQL applications, and later developed standalone and web applications with Java. Josh wrote his early Java web applications utilizing JDBC to work with backend databases. Later, he incorporated frameworks into his enterprise solutions, including Java EE, Spring, and JBoss Seam. Today, he primarily develops enterprise web solutions utilizing Java EE. He is an avid contributor to Oracle's Java Magazine, speaks at conferences and Java user group events, contributes to the Chicago Java User Group, and is an Apache NetBeans committer and a Java Champion.
Sven Reimers is based at Lake Constance in southern Germany where he works as a systems engineer for Airbus Defense and Space creating next-generation ground segment software for space systems. He has more than 20 years experience building complex software systems, and more than 20 years experience with Java. In 2009 Reimers was the winner of the Duke`s Choice Award in the Network Solutions category for ND SatCom Satellite Communication Management Software. He is part of the Apache NetBeans PMC, a contributor to OpenJFX, and leader and founder of JUG Bodensee. For his long-term commitment to Java and the community, Reimers was named a Java Champion in 2014.

Mario Schröder earned a master's degree in civil engineering from the University of Rostock in Germany. However, he discovered his passion for computer science during his studies and made programming and software development into his profession. He started working with Java professionally in 2001. His first contact with NetBeans was in 2004. He was a member of the NetCat team for Version 7.2, has contributed patches to the platform, and has developed several plugins.

Geertjan Wielenga is a product manager in the NetBeans team. He lives and works in Amsterdam. He is a Java technology enthusiast, evangelist, trainer, speaker, and writer. He studied law at the University of Natal in Pietermaritzburg (South Africa). In early 1996, however, he found himself as a proofreader for a software organization in the Netherlands called SuperNova. After having worked at various other software organizations in the Netherlands, he moved to Vienna, Austria and worked for Coca-Cola's ERP system. In 2004 he moved to Prague, Czech Republic, to work on a free and open source called NetBeans IDE. He discovered that NetBeans IDE was a unique product, project, and ecosystem. Geertjan became inspired and continually enthused by the open source ecosystem and the central role that the NetBeans community was playing in it. He is happy and proud of the role NetBeans has played in Java's 20+ years of existence, and of as his own small personal contributions to the process.
