• Join a team that values continuous learning and iteration, using both qualitative insights and available data to refine and enhance the user experience.
• Document your approach, research findings, and design decisions, following common standards and processes defined by the design team.
• Manage, document, and maintain our Figma libraries as part of our continuous effort to build and refine our design system.
• Collaborate closely with developers to ensure that every improvement or new feature is backed by thoughtful UX and solid design principles.
• Work alongside UX team members and designers across different teams, keeping the feedback loop active, exchanging insights, and aligning design decisions to ensure a cohesive user experience.
• Adapt and translate web-based functionalities into a seamless and consistent mobile experience, ensuring Moodle Apps align with the broader Moodle ecosystem.

Essential Knowledge, Experience and Skills

We’re looking for a UX/UI Designer who has:

• Experience designing multi-device and responsive applications – from Android to iOS, and across various screen sizes, from smartphones to tablets.
• A strong understanding of design principles, particularly for touch interfaces, mobile usability, and gesture-based interactions.
• Experience working with established design libraries such as Material Design and Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines (HIG).
• Experience working in multidisciplinary teams and within agile methodologies.
• A strong design portfolio showcasing case studies that are result-oriented, demonstrating iterations, problem-solving, and impact.
• A user-first mindset, ensuring that every design decision is driven by real user needs and usability principles, while effectively communicating insights and advocating for users within the team.

• A creative approach to problem-solving and a willingness to contribute to a team with high design standards.
• A collaborative and friendly attitude, thriving in a dynamic and globally distributed team where communication plays a key role.
• Proficiency in English (fluent) – while you will primarily work with a Barcelona and Spain-based team, Moodle is an international company with team members around the world.

Nice to Have (but not essential)

• Advanced experience with Figma, including libraries management, prototyping, and advanced workflows.
• Familiarity with technical concepts and code, allowing effective communication with developers (e.g., understanding front-end principles beyond just HTML & CSS).
• Experience using research and collaboration tools such as Dovetail, Miro, Lookback, Jira, and Confluence.
• Familiarity with Moodle as a user, or experience with EdTech and e-learning platforms.

Why Join Us?
