***You now have the ability to invite a friend for Invasions to easily knock both achievements out thanks to a recent update making the Boosting Method unnecessary.***
Set Invasions to "Invite Only" and give the Generated Code to your friend then alternate kills, swap hosts, repeat.
Old Boosting Method for Xbox,
Both you and your Boosting Partner Turn Cross-Play OFF and change your in-game matchmaking Region to Middle East. Host Player load a Mission and make sure Invasion Setting is ON, Invading Player goes into Invasions to Search. When searching if you find another Random just back out and keep retrying. Have Host Kill Invader, offer a Rematch, and then Have Invader Kill Host. You now need to swap Hosts to get both accounts the Two Achievements related to Invasions.
I have successfully used this method to get 4 Profiles the Invasion Achievements and it was a sure thing each time.
Here's a great Tip from disturbedone47
"Me and a few friends tried doing this, couldn't find each other at all until we did a Mission Objective. Easiest one I found was on Mission 5, it's the side objective to destroy the Radio Tower right at the start of the Mission. Just wanted to let people know who were having problems finding each other.
*** It might take up to 10-15 minutes of backing out and researching to find your boosting partner. ***

You can also get this achievement if the Nazi AI characters kill the sniper. I was trying to find the host when I heard gunfire, and when I got close, the achievement popped and I got a banner in-game that said a scientist had killed the sniper (Karl).

If the sniper backs out (disconnects, logs off, etc) you get the achievement as well.

Theres no need to change matchmaking and hope your friend finds you, or hope a random joins anymore. You can now simply invite your friend into your game for this achievement.
Start a campaign, make sure the Invasion setting is set to at least "invite only".
Once in the mission, press
then 
and in the top corner of the screen you will see a 9-digit invite code.
Your buddy simply goes to the Invasion search screen, but instead of searching, they press and choose "Enter Code". Read out your unique code to your buddy and they'll join your game.
Now, depending on the level, your buddy will not be able to join right away (this is why there are problems searching for a match). It will show on the Invader's screen in the bottom-left of the lobby what needs to be done. In the case for the first mission, it will say "waiting for the target to destroy the radar", one of the main mission objectives. Once this is done, the invader will join.
For this achievement, the invader needs to kill the host.

To get this, you need to queue up for Sniper Invasion. Simply look for the other sniper (The main character of the game) and kill him
Be careful though, you have one chance. You die and it’s over for you. Just look out for him, be quiet, and look out for your German Allies. If you find them dead, he’s been there. If they see him, then he’s close. Any gun will do, I gunned him down with an SMG, killed them with rifles, and stabbed them. Even booby traps count (as tested on an alt)
Note: If there are two players in the invasion (the enemies are playing coop) you need to kill both or kill one and prevent the other from reviving his teammate or killing you in 3 minutes, so just chill in a corner for that time or hunt him down too.
Edit: as commented and tested on yet another alt, the AI killing them also counts. They just have to die lol
Edit 2: As pointed out by a commenter, and upon redownloading the game, there turns out to be a way to invade your friends. This is a new feature. Credit to Ahri for this find.
“You can boost this much easier by just setting the Axis Invasion to "Invite Only" and sending your boosting partner the invite code to your game. You do not need to matchmake into each others game.”

Can confirm Shomberlon's statement. You do not need to be the one who kills the sniper. An AI kill unlocks the achievement :D

*This is an online achievement*
From the main menu, select Play > Axis Invasion. On the next screen, you can edit your loadout, assign unused skill points and customize your character. When you’re ready, search for a match. The game will search for any mission in the campaign, not just the ones you have already completed. This cannot be boosted with a friend; you must play against randoms.
When you enter the game, you will be placed somewhere in the mission, and you are tasked with locating and killing the Resistance sniper. Throughout the map, there are phones that, when used, will give you the general location of the sniper. A way to identify them is they will not act the same as A.I.; they will move quicker and with more purpose. Also, you can tag your allies which will help in locating the sniper as their tags disappear if they are killed.
As you are searching, remember that you only have once chance to kill the sniper. If you are killed by them, it’s game over and you need to search for a new match. Also, if you spend too much time camping, the game will tell you to move or you will be killed. Upon killing the sniper, by any means necessary, the achievement will unlock.
Note: If there are two Resistance snipers, you must kill them both. Also, if a German A.I. kills the sniper while you are playing in the Invasion, it counts as a win for you.

This is an online trophy.
You can access this feature through the main menu, you will invade someone else's game and will need to kill them. You won't know where they are at first, but whenever they get spotted by enemies you will have a approximative location of them. You can also use phones to get the same thing.
Alternatively, if they get killed by NPCs you will also get the trophy.
