Moodle Development AI & Learning Design

I build training experiences that get people as close to the real job as possible — at minimum cost and risk. I develop web platforms and training software, model 3D scenes and equipment in Blender, administer and extend Moodle with custom plugins, author interactive courses in Articulate Storyline, and produce AI-driven animation and voiceover video. Solo full-stack builder with 15+ years across e-learning, web, and modern AI tooling.

AI as build partner
// What I do

End-to-end training, in two languages

I handle the full Moodle stack — user management, courses, modules, assignments, gradings, attendance, certificates — and turn complex manuals and SOPs into bilingual (German & English) HTML courses learners can take on iPad. When stock plugins don’t fit, I write my own — and make custom plugins talk to each other so the platform does exactly what learners need.

// How I work

Spot a gap. Build the fix.

From idea to live URL, alone. I write the Python and JavaScript, build the Docker image, push to GitLab CI/CD, deploy to the production server, configure the reverse proxy, set up the subdomain — and maintain it long after launch. Multiple live platforms run this way today.

// Why AI-driven

AI as a build partner

My e-learning studio takes a PDF manual and returns a complete course — chapters, modules, AI-generated images, real-world scenarios, worked examples, bilingual voiceovers, a PowerPoint deck, and a SCORM package ready for Moodle. A built-in toggle switches between AI and local Natural Language Processing — so confidential documents never have to leave the server. AI isn’t a buzzword in my stack. It’s how the work gets done.

// What I've built

Live platforms

Five production platforms I built end-to-end for a Munich-based aviation training company — each one born from spotting a real gap in daily operations. All five are live today, designed, built, deployed, and maintained by me.

E-Learning Studio

Flagship · AI-Powered

Upload a PDF. Get back a complete bilingual Moodle course.

Drop in a technical manual and the studio produces everything an instructor would need: chapters and modules, AI-generated images, real-world scenarios, worked examples, German & English voiceovers, a PowerPoint deck, Moodle-compatible bilingual HTML pages, and a SCORM package with dual-language voiceover — all ready to upload to Moodle. A built-in toggle lets the user choose the generation engine: AI for the polished output, or local Natural Language Processing when the source contains confidential documents that can’t leave the server. Cuts course-authoring time from weeks to hours.

3D Inspection Viewer

iPad-First

Learners inspect the equipment on iPad — before touching the real thing.

Interactive pre-operation inspection module embedded inside Moodle via iframe. Learners tap hotspots on a 3D model, follow a guided walk-around path, and pull up inspection images and video clips at each checkpoint. Built iPad-first with pinch-to-zoom, two-finger pan and rotate, and finger-drag on every interactive element. One viewer hosts multiple models — each project gets its own deep link.

Operations & Training Management Platform

Daily use · whole organisation

The central operations hub for the entire organisation.

One platform for everything a regulated operator has to keep track of: crew training records with expiry alerts, a point-of-contact directory, regulatory correspondence, safety incident reports, site visits, maintenance and tech logs. Built-in compliance trackers keep the company audit-ready. Generates the weekly operations plan as a branded PDF and pushes notifications via Microsoft Teams and email. Supports bulk Excel import and exports to CSV, Excel, or PDF. Role-based permissions per department with a full audit trail.

Innovation Board

Tapping company talent

When the answer doesn’t exist yet, this is where the whole company helps find it.

Companies building novel technology hit problems with no known solutions. Any department can post a challenge here, and any employee — from any department — can suggest a solution. Everyone sees every suggestion, can reply, like, and react with emojis. Designed to tap hidden talent across the org and turn cross-functional problem-solving into a habit.

Live Sortie Simulator

Full rehearsal in the browser

Crews rehearse the entire mission before anyone touches real equipment.

A browser-based simulator that walks a crew through a complete mission phase by phase, exactly as the operating manual prescribes. A finite-state engine drives every step — from power-up and built-in test through crew briefing, radio calls, and launch — while branching emergency decision trees test how the crew reacts when things go wrong. Live instrument displays, a real-time 3D view, map view, scoring with streaks, and a trainer console for injecting scenarios and running session codes. Every procedure is sourced strictly from the official manual.

Custom Moodle plugins

When stock plugins fall short, I write my own — and make custom plugins communicate with each other so the LMS does exactly what learners need.

// Also handle
Server, hosting, subdomains

Docker server administration, deployments, updates, maintenance — plus DNS and subdomain management for every platform above.

// Always
Looking for the next gap

I’m constantly scanning for problems my colleagues hit every day — and quietly building the software that makes those problems disappear.

Skills

I build with AI as my primary engineering partner — daily, openly, and effectively. Here’s what I bring to the table, honestly framed around what I can show you and talk through in detail.

A note on how I build: I use AI — Claude and ChatGPT — as my primary engineering collaborator. I architect, scope, review, deploy, and maintain every platform myself, but I lean heavily on AI for the implementation work. I’d rather be upfront about that than oversell deep framework expertise in an interview.
