Senior Associate; Remote

If you're a recruiter who's exhausted by sourcing, screening, and treating resumes as reliable predictors of performance, this position is designed for you. Step into Crossover's People and Talent Operations team to architect the full hiring experience from start to finish. Your purpose is not to shepherd candidates through a pipeline. Your purpose is to engineer the system that draws in the right individuals, measures genuine capability, and produces high-quality hires punctually — hires who satisfy the quality standard and remain.

When results fall short of expectations, you don't rationalize them. You reconstruct the system. We do not conduct hiring like a conventional organization. Manual sourcing does not exist here, resume-first screening is absent, and the recruiter-as-gatekeeper approach is not used. Job postings are crafted to reach and engage the ideal audience, including candidates not actively searching. Screening frameworks are built to measure skills, judgment, applicable knowledge, and actual work output well before a hiring team conducts any interview.

We also prioritize full transparency: we do not operate like most companies, and not everyone will succeed here. That is not a critique — it is about alignment. We take seriously the importance of not wasting applicants' time, so before you commit to our application process, it is essential to understand what this role is not.
