The Star Wars universe is full of trillions of sapient, dextrous beings, humans* or otherwise. Just because the inventors don’t (necessarily) show up on screen doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
If you want a “too simplified as to be almost certainly wrong” answer: E.T.
His species are canonically native to the Star Wars galaxy but we don’t see them most of the time in the SW lore. Let’s assume they’re the ones who invented it all. Easy.
I mean, the one we got a movie about didn’t seem all that bright, but he managed to build a communicator array out of a Speak-n-Spell, so they must have something going for them.
“Trillions” is probably a major lowball, coruscant alone officially a population in the trillions, and when you actually do the math making some estimates based on densely-populated cities on earth it’s more likely in the quadrillions.
And there’s million of inhabited planets, most not even close to as densely populated as coruscant of course, but there are a good handful of other ecumenopolises (ecumenopoli?) around the galaxy

ET: “Phone home.”

Technically it’s the other way around isn’t it?
