Depends. If the 'unit' is big enough to have an interface spec then a different dev should write the test. If you're doing function level unit testing, a dev should write it. There's a grey area between those two extremes.

My original post was intended to focus on system and api level testing but I wasn't clear on that.

I agree, there's a ton of grey areas in this whole field, especially around the borders between layers.
