Thomson Reuters is cutting a small number of engineering roles globally. The company held a technology all-hands meeting on Monday. It plans to hire more than 250 net new engineering roles over the next two years. The large majority will be senior and AI-native. This move supports its push into artificial intelligence across legal, tax, and regulatory products. Up to 500 roles could be affected. That is roughly 5 percent of its operations and technology division. The company says it is focusing capacity where it matters most to customers. It will support affected colleagues during the transition. Thomson Reuters has embedded AI assistants in platforms like Westlaw. Shares rose about 5 percent after the news.
