Rob Dozier

Hi, I'm Rob — a senior product designer with 10+ years of experience across UX, UI, and front-end. I like to move fast, start in Figma, and often finish ideas in code. While I can hold my own in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, my focus these days is on design that's thoughtful, intuitive, and real.

I've worked with brands like EA, Facebook, and LinkedIn, and now team up with startups and VCs at KBD to build clean, flexible digital experiences. I care a lot about the details — not just how something looks, but how it feels and functions in the wild.

I'm drawn to FetLife because it's honest. It's a space that puts community first, and I'd love to help design something that people genuinely trust and connect with.

Case Studies

Case Study

Specialists in pre-seed and seed.

Pear came to us with a challenge: their existing site didn't reflect the strength of their portfolio, the personality of their team, or the clarity of their mission. In collaboration with KBD, my goal was to position Pear as the go-to seed platform for founders around the world.

In Their Own Words

“

…I want to thank Katie Bush, Matthew Rowland, Rob Dozier, Steve Pfisterer, and Jason from the KBD team for helping us build and bring Pear VC to life. I asked them if I win the award for the most change requests during the QA process and they (kindly) said yes by a long shot. Thanks for bearing with us and helping us get it over the finish line.”

We approached the redesign with a focus on simplicity, warmth, and flexibility. I led the UX and UI design, building a clean, modular system that made it easy to tell Pear's story — from their founder-friendly investment philosophy to their growing portfolio of breakout companies.

Case Study

A new internet—one rated and curated by humans.

Get Kelvin aimed to reimagine how we discover and share the internet — a platform where people could curate, rate, and organize URLs into private and public collections, making browsing more collaborative and meaningful.

Despite strong early interest and a successful launch on Product Hunt, the startup couldn't secure funding due to the COVID-19 climate. Still, it was one of the most creative and energizing projects I've worked on — and a reminder of how good design can make digital spaces feel more human.

Case Study

From idea to iconic.

Greylock needed more than a new website. As one of the most established firms in Silicon Valley, they were looking for a modern, cohesive brand experience — from their online presence to real-world event materials.

I led the UX and UI design for the full site rebuild, starting with a deep dive into their content strategy and user flows. The goal was to design a system that felt sophisticated but approachable — something that could adapt to Greylock's evolving portfolio, highlight the people behind the firm, and surface their deep library of insights. The result was a modular design system built for flexibility, speed, and editorial storytelling across every page.

From the first wireframe to the final print banner, this project was about consistency, clarity, and elevating a legacy brand without losing its edge. It was rewarding to help Greylock tell their story, not just online but everywhere their presence is felt.

Case Study

Keeping you ahead of the storm.

MyRadar wanted to make hyperlocal weather more accessible — hands-free and glanceable. In collaboration with Counter Studio, we set out to design a voice-first experience for Amazon's Echo Show that felt intuitive, visual, and helpful.

I led the product design in Figma, focusing on simplicity and clarity across voice and screen interactions. The result: a sleek Alexa Skill that delivers animated radar maps, detailed forecasts, and real-time conditions with just a voice command.
