Job offered: Moodle Administrator, Allrounder

Moodle Administrator, allrounder, parttime (60%)

We’re looking for a competent Product Owner Assistant for Moodle Administrator and Course Creator.


You will work on support tickets from clients and train users in Moodle Administration in face to face classes as well as online. You can communicate in English, French and German. You know about best practices in Moodle course creation and are generally familiar with Online- and blended learning scenarios.


We offer working remotely for 1 day a week. You could work at the Fribourg or the Lausanne office. You will work closely with the Product Owner and the Business Developer as well as the developers in a cross functional team.


We love to craft web applications

… that make sense and are useful. We strongly believe in the web, whatever stack is used to render the page. PHP is cool and Python too. Same for Angular.js and Backbone. We try to see language choice as the right tool for the job that needs to be done. Ah, and yeah, we are involved in a lot of projects in the open source world! We see Moodle as a basis to create custom virtual learning environments. With community involvement and upstream commits we strive to push Moodle in the direction of a framework that allows us to create sites based on outcomes of a UX process. We want to create environments that are designed to the needs of the user rather than mould the user’s needs to what a system offers out of the box. As a Certified Moodle Partner of many years we engage with the community and are in direct discussion with the core developers at Moodle HQ.


We are looking for someone who is motivated by what (s)he does everyday and who has what we call a “start-up-like-spirit” - think entrepreneurship, not extra hours! Hopefully you enjoy working in a cross-functional team, having lots of arguments during sessions, or discussing business value with a client during an estimation meeting ?


By the way, all of our teams are self-managed, which means that you have a voice for what you want to do, be it your projects, your tech stack or your coffee!


We think that this kind of environment is the best way to keep people happy while learning a lot. Last but not least, you should be fluent in English & French ideally. If you speak German, it could be a plus (to understand some private jokes when we meet our Eastern colleagues!)


What Liip will do for you

We keep repeating that Liip is made by its employees, and that is why Liip rewards them as often as possible. This is not just a motto that stays on the carpet after you entered our office.

After a few weeks of working with us, new Liipers say they love:

  • self-organized teams

  • allocated budget and time for conferences, further education, certifications

  • possible part-time occupation for better work-life balance

  • clear project methodology (Scrum)


Still interested?

First, we would like to hear about your last “Oh yeah!” moment as Moodle Administrator. Be it the go-live of course or exam, a “complex” problem finally solved, you name it…


Next, tell us about the communities/projects you follow and/or in which you are involved these days. And the most important, tell us why you love it so much!


Finally, let us know about your Github, Twitter, Linkedin, Pinterest and/or any other account that describes you best.
