Got front brakes (rotors and pads) replaced and now I’m getting below alerts:

precollision system malfunction
Parking brake malfunction

The parking brake works just fine (I put car in drive and activated it with no issue)

I tried resetting codes and they keep coming back on

what else can I do?

Both of those things can't be true.
Most likely autozone employees used the cheap code reader which can pickup only powertrain codes.
They need to use the advanced scanner which can read all electronic components.

How did you reset the codes without having anything that could read the codes?
I think OP called warning messages as a "codes". As I understood - he tried to reset those messages like: "Parking brake malfunction," etc.

Camry Brake Pads should last 30K-50K miles (change at 35K miles), New Rotors are recommended before or at 70K and don't forget to replace the Pads when you get New Rotors.
You should always check for Brake Pad wear at Oil Changes. If you allow the Pads to become thin, your rotors may become damaged you may hear both high pitch squeeling and Crushing Grombling Grinding Noise.
This way you change the Pads for 2nd time while replacing the Rotors at 70K miles for the 1st time.
Please be easy on your Brakes and do not Ride them.
Hard Stops and consistent brake pressure going down steep hills wear brakes out really fast.
Get a complete Brake Fluid Flush at 100K miles or when changing the Pads for the 3rd time. Perfect time for all 4-wheel alignment too.
Another thing at 100K, may consider flushing the Anti-Freeze/Coolant from the Radiator.
At 50K miles, A Complete Transmission Flush, after this all you need to do is Drain and Fill.
Oil Change is best at every 5K miles but some people opt for 7,500 miles. I play it safe going for every 5K.

If you have Instrument Panel Warning Lights (Icons) staying on or intermittent (showing up often and then disappearing) you should go to your reputable and knowledgeable mechanic who works on many newer Toyota vehicles. Reason, the Mechanic requires the lousy expensive Diagnostic Machine or TechStream Software and may or may not have it, therefore in many situations go to a Toyota Dealership Service Dept. It is never cheap to own a vehicle so take care of it. Hopefully, you will get up to 10 years or 300K miles. Read that most Auto Transmissions and CVTs need to be rebuilt around 250K miles. Drive Safe!
