Andries Bicker, lord of Engelenburg (Amsterdam, 1586 – 24 June 1652 ibid) was a powerful Amsterdam burgomaster and Dutch politician and diplomat during the Dutch Golden Age. He was a prominent member of the Bicker family of Amsterdam regents who, together with the related De Graeff family, governed the city of Amsterdam and with it the province of Holland for about half a century and, at that time, effectively the Republic of the Netherlands when it was at the height of its power.
