Description
WARNING: This is not a conventional recruiting position.
Crossover is seeking a college recruiter to identify and secure the next 50 Alpha AI Engineer Interns: top-tier undergraduates from Stanford and MIT, prepared to dedicate their summer to working with generative AI. Your mission? Deliver that full class. Quickly.
You'll manage the complete process: relationship development, event coordination, large-scale outreach, and candidate conversion. You'll operate with the agility of a startup, think with the precision of a talent scout, and deliver with the rigor of a sales executive. This isn't about polished networking dinners or branded merchandise tables. It's about measurable outcomes: 50 students, summer 2026, Austin, TX. You'll have complete support — independence, resources, defined objectives — with full accountability.
This position suits someone who embraces complexity, takes ownership of results, and knows precisely how to source and secure elite CS talent.
The fundamentals:
- $75,000 annual salary + complete travel expenses covered
- Full-time role with comprehensive benefits
- US-based (requiring frequent travel to MIT and Stanford)
You could be our perfect fit if you:
- Radiate infectious enthusiasm that captures attention — and drives student participation
- Approach logistics as a strategic challenge and excel at precision execution
- Remain composed under pressure and adapt seamlessly when circumstances change unexpectedly
- Understand how to command attention, advance a pipeline, and achieve demanding targets
- Embrace the rhythm of campus environments and the complexity of converting curiosity into commitment
- Excel in constant motion — prepared to travel, calendar booked, consistently proactive
If you graduated from Stanford or MIT — or understand how to succeed on those campuses — this represents the most impactful recruiting opportunity available.
What you will be doing
- Developing and overseeing a results-oriented pipeline of Stanford and MIT CS/ML students from first contact through accepted offers
- Managing all operational aspects of on-campus recruitment events — including venue booking, catering arrangements, and materials preparation
- Making regular trips to MIT and Stanford to conduct in-person sessions, information presentations, and dynamic engagement activities with students and faculty
- Executing a structured, data-informed campaign: tracking outreach numbers, event participation, assessment progression, and final enrollment yield
- Serving as the primary campus representative for the Alpha AI Engineer internship — accessible, detail-oriented, and authoritative
What you will NOT be doing
- Depending on employer branding or HR functions to generate engagement — you control the entire outcome
- Making infrequent campus visits or conducting "passive" recruitment — this requires sustained, intensive effort throughout the cycle
- Delegating logistics to support staff — you'll secure venues, coordinate shipments, and manage catering directly
- Maintaining standard business hours — critical activity occurs on student schedules: evenings, weekends, exam periods
Key responsibilities
Secure a complete, elite Alpha AI Engineer internship cohort (50+ accepted candidates) from Stanford and MIT by May 2026 via targeted outreach, event execution, and comprehensive application pipeline oversight.
Candidate requirements
- Minimum 1 year of college recruitment, admissions, or event-driven outreach experience
- Documented track record in high-volume outreach and student mobilization
- Verified capability to coordinate complex event operations autonomously
- Strong communicator, exceptionally organized, independently motivated
- US-based with capacity for regular travel to Stanford and MIT
Nice to have
- Stanford or MIT alumni credentials
- Prior experience recruiting for CS/ML or similar technical talent pools
- History in sales, campaign management, or startup operations
