About the role

  • These are just a few words that describe what life is like at Toyota.
  • We're looking for talented team members who want to Dream.
  • An important part of the Toyota family is Toyota Financial Services (TFS), the finance and insurance brand for Toyota and Lexus in North America.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and maintain full-stack features - from APIs and serverless services to the data models and event-driven workflows that power them
  • Lead technical design reviews, architecture discussions, and RFC processes - driving alignment across engineering teams
  • Own complex debugging and troubleshooting across the full stack - from API latency to infrastructure misconfigurations to distributed system failures
  • Collaborate closely with Engineering Managers, Product, and Front-End Engineering to shape roadmaps and ensure technical feasibility
  • As one of the world's most admired brands, Toyota is growing and leading the future of mobility through innovative, high-quality solutions designed to enhance lives and delight those we serve.
  • At TFS, you will help create best-in-class customer experience in an innovative, collaborative environment.
  • Toyota does not offer support or sponsorship of job applicants for employment-based visas or any other work authorization for this role now or in the future.
  • At TFS, we're building next-generation products that redefine mobility for millions of customers worldwide.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience with a strong backend or full-stack focus
  • Strong proficiency in TypeScript and/or Python for backend services - you default to production-quality code and advocate for it across the codebase
  • Experience with observability and monitoring tooling: CloudWatch, X-Ray, Datadog, or similar - you know how to instrument services, trace distributed requests, and respond to incidents
  • Strong understanding of security best practices: IAM policies, least-privilege access, secrets management (Secrets Manager, SSM Parameter Store), and data encryption at rest and in transit
  • Deep experience debugging complex issues across distributed systems - network traces, distributed tracing, log analysis, and profiling
  • Experience with testing at all levels: unit, integration, contract, and load testing for distributed systems
  • Familiarity with containerized workloads (ECS Fargate, Docker) for services that don't fit the serverless model

Compensation

  • Toyota 401(k) Savings Plan featuring a company match, as well as an annual retirement contribution from Toyota, regardless of whether you contribute

Benefits

  • While TFS is a separate business entity, it is an essential part of this world-changing company- delivering on Toyota's vision to move people beyond what's possible.
