Multi Disciplinary Designer - AI Super User (Unreal Engine)

The Multi Disciplinary Designer - AI Super User develops distinctive, customer-centred design concepts across automotive interiors and a range of industrial and product design projects. Combining advanced design practice with strong digital and AI visualization skills, the role turns early ideas into compelling stories, visualizations and design proposals that express McLaren's performance, technology and luxury values. The role works collaboratively across disciplines, using design thinking, customer understanding and emerging AI tools to accelerate exploration, communicate design intent and support informed creative decisions. It also brings expertise in selecting and using an appropriate AI toolset, crafting effective prompts and guiding AI systems to produce relevant, design-led outputs. What You'll Do

• Develop concepts for interiors and a varied portfolio of industrial and product design projects.
• Apply advanced design and design-thinking methods to explore opportunities, frame problems and develop purposeful solutions.
• Create customer-centred concepts informed by customer needs, context and desired experience.
• Translate ideas into clear visual narratives using sketches, storyboards, presentations and digital visualizations.
• Lead and contribute to AI-enabled design visualization, using current tools to explore, refine and communicate concepts.
• Select and apply an appropriate AI toolset for each task, using tools efficiently to support the creative process and project objectives.
• Craft effective AI prompts and apply prompt frameworks to direct, refine and iterate AI-generated outputs in line with the design brief.
• Guide AI systems through a considered process of briefing, experimentation, evaluation and refinement, using design judgement to assess and develop results.
• Act as an AI super user within the creative team by sharing effective workflows, supporting adoption and helping colleagues use AI tools in the design process.
• Use AI responsibly and with sound design judgement, treating generated outputs as inputs for creative development rather than substitutes for design expertise.
• Apply UX principles to relevant products, interfaces and experiences, working with appropriate design and technical specialists.
• Communicate design intent clearly to creative colleagues, stakeholders and partners.
• Collaborate across disciplines and support team reviews, workshops and presentations.
• Keep current with developments in AI, visualization, transportation design, industrial design and user experience, identifying relevant opportunities for the team.
