Why does Moses who lived in Egypt at that time never mention the Israelites working on the Pyramids at the time before the Exodus?

This means that Moses would not have lived during the time when the pyramids were being constructed. Even if Moses was a real, historical person it can be shown that he did not write the Book of Exodus, which scholars date to a period many centuries afterwards. There is no reason for the real author to have mentioned the pyramids, even if he knew they existed.

Why in the history of egypt on the pyramids there is nothing about moses?
Because Moses is said to have lived in Egypt in around 1250BC 1200 years after the Giza pyramids were built and about 300 years after the last pyramid. The Bible account (Exodus 1 v.11-15) of Moses does not mention pyramids but cities. Cities built predominately out of mud brick. Another option is that the whole event of the Israelites in Egypt did not take place. It is at best myth, a reference to a lesser event blown out of proportion by the passage of time. There are no references to it outside of the Bible.
