Joachim Holmboe Rønneberg (born in Ålesund August 30, 1919), is a Norwegian officer. During World War II he led the Gunnerside team during the Norwegian heavy water sabotage action against the Norsk Hydro heavy water production plant in Rjukan in Norway in 1943. Subsequently he commanded other raids against the Germans, including the Fieldfare operation in Sunnmøre.

After the war he worked as a program editor at NRK. He also participated in rebulding the Fieldfare cabin, which today gives an image of Norwegian resistance during the war.
