Who we're looking for

Toyota is seeking a Domain Architect that is responsible and accountable for all architecture and design decisions within a specific domain, combining strategic oversight with hands-on technical leadership. Unlike traditional domain architects, this role requires deep technical involvement in the full application architecture and development lifecycle, translating business requirements into functioning software systems while maintaining alignment with enterprise architecture standards and the longer-term digital transformation strategy.

This role demands expertise in full stack application development, database design, cloud architecture, and systems implementation. The Domain Architect will work directly with code, design patterns, and technical implementations while also driving domain-level strategy and maintaining business architecture artifacts.

What you'll be doing
Strategic Domain Leadership (50%)

• Serve as part of the Domain Leadership Team to create technology strategy and influence technology direction
• Responsible and accountable for all architecture functions within the domain
• Create and maintain Technology Strategy, and current/target state architectures for the domain
• Collaborate with other domain architects and stakeholders to drive consensus across cross-domain architecture initiatives
• Validate technology feasibility of business case and concept proposals
• Partner with Technology Domain Owners to maintain domain technology roadmaps

Hands-On Solution Design & Implementation (25%)

• Drive full stack solution design and implementation based on industry best practices such as microservices, streaming technologies, and event-driven architectures that support modular, decoupled, and integrated designs
• Lead the design and implementation of reusable software components, shared libraries, and frameworks for enterprise-wide use
• Collaborate directly with other domain architects, subject matter experts, delivery leads, and product owners to develop solutions for complex business problems in a timely manner
• Strong focus on enhancing non-functional requirements such as reusability, scalability, maintainability, performance, availability, and reliability
• Support solution architects in creating application high-level and low-level designs and document necessary artifacts

Technical Leadership & Governance (25%)

• Ensure proposed technology solutions adhere to Architecture Standards and align with enterprise architecture principles

• Create and maintain comprehensive architectural documentation that aids in sustaining system integrity and facilitates knowledge sharing

• Evangelize effective pattern utilization during software development to uphold sound architectural principles and good design practices

• Mentor and coach software developers and solution architects on system design, code quality, and maintainability

• Participate in all cross-domain architecture routines and governance processes

What you bring

• 12+ years of experience in software engineering, preferably with a strong software engineer background and a proven track record of consistently delivering high-impact software products in a timely manner

• 5+ years of experience as an Application, Solutions, or Domain Architect delivering enterprise solutions at scale using modern cloud-native technologies (AWS preferred)

• Demonstrated experience in both strategic architecture planning and hands-on technical implementation

Technical Expertise

• Expert-level experience implementing reusable software components and shared libraries for enterprise-wide use in one or more languages like Java, Python, and JavaScript.

• Deep understanding of microservices architecture, distributed computing, cloud computing (AWS preferred), and non-functional aspects of software architecture

• Strong expertise in database design, data architecture, and full stack web application development

• Experience with Gen AI & Agentic AI Customer focused solutions

• Comprehensive understanding of InfoSec and DevSecOps principles using AWS technologies

• Experience with application portfolio management and domain-driven design

• Background in financial systems and relevant application or domain expertise is preferred but not mandatory

• Infrastructure Background a plus

• Looking for individuals with Customer Centric focus

Leadership & Communication

• Strong leadership skills with excellent oral and written communication abilities

• Proven ability to present and discuss technical, functional, and managerial information clearly and concisely to various stakeholders from Business Executives to Developers

• Strong interpersonal skills with the capability to advise on engineering topics to technical and non-technical stakeholders

• Ability to drive consensus and influence technology decisions across multiple teams and domains

Added bonus if you have

• AWS Solutions Architect Professional or Associate certification

**
What Sets This Role Apart:**

This is not a traditional domain architect position. We're looking for an architect who can balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution-someone equally comfortable presenting to executive leadership and reviewing code with development teams. You'll shape domain strategy in the morning and implement reference architectures in the afternoon. If you're passionate about both the "what" and the "how" of enterprise architecture, this role is for you.

What we'll bring

• During your interview process, our team can fill you in on all the details of our industry-leading benefits and career development opportunities. A few highlights include:

• A work environment built on teamwork, flexibility, and respect.

• Professional growth and development programs to help advance your career, as well as tuition reimbursement.

• Team Member Vehicle Purchase Discount

• Toyota Team Member Lease Vehicle Program (if applicable)

• Comprehensive health care and wellness plans for your entire family.

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

• Paid holidays and paid time off.

• Referral services related to prenatal services, adoption, childcare, schools, and more.

• Relocation assistance (if applicable).
