I'm working with a client based in the North of Germany who are looking for 3 x Physical Design Engineer on a long term contracting basis for Engineers with 10+ years experience ideally.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform complete P&R flow: floorplanning, power planning, placement, CTS, routing, and physical optimization

• Drive timing closure across all corners using advanced Static Timing Analysis (STA) techniques

• Execute and debug physical verification flows including DRC, LVS, and ERC using Calibre

• Analyze and fix timing, SI, IR drop, and EM issues

• Collaborate with RTL, DFT, PD, and verification teams to achieve design closure

• Ensure high-quality sign-off meeting PPA (Power, Performance, Area) targets

Requirements:

• 10+ years of industry experience in digital physical design

• Strong expertise in both Cadence (Innovus, Tempus) and Synopsys (ICC2, PrimeTime) toolchains

• Proven proficiency in Calibre for physical verification and sign-off

• Deep knowledge of STA concepts, timing constraints, and closure methodologies

• Experience with advanced nodes and low-power design techniques is highly desirable

Preferred:

• Experience in both full-chip and subsystem integrations and tape-out cycles

• Scripting skills (TCL, Python) for flow automation
