proto1 was designed by Sanjay and Jeff, proto2 by Kenton Varda (who later designed Cap'n'Proto), proto3 I can't remember who but I never heard Rob Pike being credited with this. He did write the very first Go proto binding package though and a separate serialization package called gob with a totally separate rpc library.
