Amazon cut more jobs this week, with reductions hitting its Selling Partner Services organization this time, a company spokesperson confirmed to Business Insider.<\/p>\n

The layoffs follow roughly 30,000 job cuts announced across waves in October and January. In March, the company also eliminated a small number of roles in its robotics division.<\/p>\n

The size of the layoffs this week could not be determined, though the spokesperson described the cuts as affecting a “small number” of employees.<\/p>\n

“We regularly review our organizations to ensure we’re best set up to deliver on our goals. Following a recent review, we’ve made the difficult decision to eliminate a relatively small number of roles in our Selling Partner Services team. We don’t take decisions like this lightly, and we’re committed to supporting affected employees with transitional health care, a separation payment, and outsourced job placement services,” the spokesperson said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The Selling Partner Services group works closely with millions of third-party merchants that sell products on Amazon’s marketplace, helping with onboarding, logistics, and account support.<\/p>\n

The latest cuts underscore how Amazon continues to reshape its sprawling retail organization after CEO Andy Jassy spent the last two years emphasizing efficiency and cost discipline. While the company previously framed large-scale layoffs as a response to pandemic-era over-expansion, the continued reductions suggest Amazon is still fine-tuning headcount across multiple businesses.<\/p>\n

The cuts also come as Amazon aggressively expands its investments in AI across nearly every part of the company, from retail operations and customer service to advertising and logistics.<\/p>\n

Executives have increasingly pushed teams to use AI tools to automate routine tasks and streamline operations, raising concern among some employees that roles might be replaced or reduced through automation. Jassy has said AI will allow Amazon to operate more efficiently over time, and warned last year that it could help “reduce” the company’s workforce.<\/p>\n
