The story

Crossover operates as a remote talent marketplace connecting global contractors with tech companies — primarily Trilogy, Alpha, gt.school, and related portfolio companies. It functions both as a recruiter and as a back-office payroll/compliance layer for international independent contractors and W2 employees. The embedded finance angle is primarily in global payouts: Payoneer for international contractors and Paychex for US-based W2 employees.
