Number: MER0003X0B Mercedes-Benz Group AG is one of the most successful automotive companies in the world. With Mercedes-Benz AG, the vehicle manufacturer is one of the largest providers of premium and luxury cars and vans. We are Innovative Experience: In our cross-functional team “Future UX-Concepts & UX-SW-Technologies” we design the vision of our UX Vision for the Mercedes-Benz user experience of the future. With this vision we develop a new, holistic customer experience in our vehicles and beyond. Our customers are at the heart of the Mercedes-Benz Experience. To accompany us on our way to the future of mobility, we are looking for creative participation in the design/development, prototypical realization and evaluation of future-oriented multimodal user experiences in the vehicle for a period of 5-6 months. We focus on the development of new concepts, taking into account innovative intuitive input-output modalities, focusing on gaze and gestures in conjunction with other modalities and the latest AI capabilities for the best possible customer experience. These challenges include: Using the idea-finding, design and planning of user-friendly, interactive and multimodal experience in and around the vehicle in a vision of the future

Using the identification and evaluation of suitable user-oriented modalities for interaction and user interface design, including using generic AI approaches, affective computing and supporting technologies

Creation of user stories/user journeys by means of: prototypical implementation of visualization and interaction concepts in our digital, multi-modal experience environments, among others in our 2D Toolchain, 3D Virtual/Augmented Reality environments, seat crates and aggregate carriers

Independent development, design, animation and integration of 2D/3D assets and models to simulate new user interfaces

With the help of the further development of our experience environments, e.g. based on the developed concept features

Using the definition and evaluation of future hardware and software architectures, technically complex interaction scenarios with different input and output channels and the integration of AI technology for future use in a series product

Using user/technology research, problem analysis and definition, evaluation and evaluation of alternative interaction concepts
