The only time I've ever seen TOEFL (the test, that is) mentioned is in
academic requirements for international students at US universities. It
would probably carry as much weight in tech writing as a writing score on
any other standardized test -- that is, none. All tech writers have to prove
their language skills by example, so I don't think a test score makes any
difference.
