Top SchoolRobert Gardziel is a veteran design leader with 10+ years shaping enterprise and developer-focused products from startup to scale, most recently serving as Head of Design at Docker where he rebuilt design after major downsizing and grew the team fivefold. He blends strategic vision with hands-on craft—creating Docker’s first UX research team, Dev Preview and design partner programs, a design systems team, and company-wide personas and principles that drove product-market fit and revenue. Prior to Docker he directed design at DesignMap, delivering consumer-quality UX to complex enterprise software for clients ranging from eBay to Salesforce. Now self-employed as a Design Director, Principal Designer, and advisor in South Lake Tahoe, he focuses on scaling teams and product experiences for growth-stage companies. A BFA-trained visual thinker with a background in photography and early web marketing, he brings a rare mix of art-direction sensibility and operational rigor to product design.
