Morphology

doser = dose (transparent) = dose + er

The noun is transparently formed from the verb 'dose' with '-er' to mean a person who doses something.

Etymology

Doser is formed from dose and the ending -er, so it simply means 'someone who gives a dose', which is why the word fits a person who measures and gives medicine or chemicals to others.
