Description
This recruiting role operates at a different velocity than most.
Crossover needs a college recruiter to identify, engage, and convert 50 Alpha AI Engineer Interns: top-performing undergraduates from Stanford and MIT who will spend their summer developing solutions with generative AI. Your objective? Deliver that cohort. Quickly.
You will own the full recruitment lifecycle: from establishing campus relationships and coordinating event execution to driving large-scale outreach and converting applicants. You must operate with the agility of a startup founder, the instincts of a talent scout, and the discipline of a sales executive. This is not about polished networking dinners or branded merchandise tables. It's about delivering measurable outcomes: 50 interns, summer 2026, Austin, TX. You will have the resources you need — independence, funding, defined targets — and direct accountability for results.
This position is ideal for someone energized by ambitious goals, committed to ownership, and skilled at sourcing and securing exceptional CS talent.
Compensation and logistics:
- Annual salary of $75,000 with all travel expenses covered
- Full-time role with comprehensive benefits
- US-based position requiring frequent travel to MIT and Stanford
You may be the right fit if you:
- Project magnetic energy that commands attention — and brings students through the door
- Approach event logistics as tactical execution and excel at precision in every detail
- Maintain composure when timelines compress and conditions change without warning
- Understand how to command attention, manage pipeline momentum, and hit aggressive targets
- Thrive in the rhythm of academic environments and converting curiosity into commitment
- Operate effectively while traveling — always prepared, scheduled tightly, anticipating next steps
If you graduated from Stanford or MIT — or understand how to succeed on those campuses — this represents one of the most impactful recruiting opportunities available.
What you will be doing
- Constructing and operating a results-focused recruitment funnel targeting MIT and Stanford CS/ML undergraduates from first contact through accepted offers
- Managing every aspect of on-campus event logistics — securing venues, coordinating catering, and arranging promotional materials
- Making regular trips to MIT and Stanford to lead in-person sessions, information presentations, and strategic engagement with students and academic staff
- Executing a data-informed, structured campaign: tracking outreach scale, event participation, assessment progression, and final enrollment yield
- Serving as the primary representative of the Alpha AI Engineer internship on campus — accessible, dependable, and authoritative
What you will NOT be doing
- Depending on employer branding or HR infrastructure to generate interest — you are accountable for the complete result
- Making occasional campus visits or conducting passive recruiting — this demands intensive, continuous engagement
- Delegating operational tasks to support teams — you will reserve spaces, handle shipments, and finalize catering arrangements yourself
- Operating on standard business hours — critical activity occurs when students are available: evenings, weekends, exam periods
Key responsibilities
Successfully recruit and confirm a complete, high-quality Alpha AI Engineer internship cohort (50+ accepted offers) from Stanford and MIT by May 2026 using targeted outreach, campus events, and rigorous funnel oversight.
Candidate requirements
- Minimum 1 year of experience in college recruitment, admissions operations, or event-driven outreach
- Documented track record in large-scale outreach initiatives and engaging student audiences
- Confirmed capability to independently coordinate intricate event logistics
- Strong communicator with excellent organizational discipline and self-management
- US-based with flexibility to travel regularly to Stanford and MIT
Nice to have
- Degree from Stanford or MIT
- Prior experience recruiting for computer science, machine learning, or technical talent pools
- Professional history in sales operations, campaign management, or startup environments
