Winifred Mitchell Baker is the Chairwoman of the Mozilla Foundation and a former CEO of Mozilla Corporation, a subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation responsible for the development of open-source internet applications, including the Mozilla Firefox web browser. She stepped down from her CEO role in February 2024, after playing a significant leadership role in Mozilla's growth and its commitment to open-source software.

Baker plays an integral role in coordinating business and policy issues within the Mozilla Foundation and Mozilla Corporation, and she serves on both organizations' Boards of Directors. Her influence extends beyond Mozilla, as she was named one of Time's 100 most influential people in the world in 2005, recognizing her impact on the tech industry.

Before joining Mozilla, Baker gained legal experience working as a Corporate and Intellectual Property Associate at Fenwick & West LLP from January 1990 to October 1993, followed by a role as Associate General Counsel at Sun Microsystems from 1993 to 1994. Her career spans law, technology, and leadership, making her a prominent figure in the tech industry and a strong advocate for open-source principles.
