IT Systems Administrator, IndiaRemote (India) | Full-Time

Also searched as: System Administrator, IT Support Executive, IT Administrator, IT Coordinator, Service Desk AnalystWhen a colleague is locked out, a new hire needs access on day one, or someone cannot work out which CRM button to press, do you want to be the person who sorts all of it, fast?

On a typical day you might clear the morning tech ticket queue and unblock two people before their first meeting, set up a new joiner's accounts and access in Rippling and Google Workspace after lunch, and answer a CRM workflow question and update the tech guide so it stops coming in before end of day.

About Contour

We started in 2020 with a handful of students and a belief that great education should not be out of reach. Today we operate across three brands with 8,000+ students and 425+ team members: roughly 100 in India and 325 onshore in Australia. The India team runs publishing, student experience, CRM and technology, operations, and people and culture.

A remote team of hundreds only moves as fast as its access, its tools, and its ability to use them. This is the seat that keeps all three working.

About This Role

You are the tech-savvy generalist who keeps Contour's team unblocked. You own the tech ticket queue, you run the system administration behind accounts and access, and you are the person people go to when a tool or a CRM workflow is not doing what they need.

The job has four parts that all sit with you. You run the tickets: every tech and access request comes through Suptask, and you triage, resolve first line, and escalate the rest with clear context. You do the system administration: Google Workspace, Rippling, and seats and access across Monday and HubSpot. You own onboarding and offboarding: setting new joiners up in the right systems on day one through Rippling, removing access cleanly when someone leaves, and building basic automations in Rippling so that setup is reliable rather than manual. And you run the audits: regular access and license checks so the right people have the right access, nothing is over-provisioned, and no leaver is left with a login.

On top of the pure IT work, you handle the non-IT but tech-based tickets: the CRM questions. Which button, which workflow, why did this behave that way. You resolve them, and just as importantly you train the team and keep the tech guide and knowledge base current, so the same questions stop coming in. This is where being genuinely tech-savvy matters: you learn a system fast, explain it plainly, and turn a repeat question into a bit of documentation.

You report to the VP of Global Enablement and Support. The automation and engineering teams own the deep builds, the Make scenarios, the HubSpot development, and the LMS code; your patch is first-line support, system administration, access, audits, and enablement, and you escalate the deep technical items to them. Because Contour is remote-first, the weight is on accounts, access, and the SaaS tools the team lives in, not physical hardware. By the end of month three, the ticket queue runs with reliable response times, onboarding and offboarding through Rippling runs like clockwork, Google Workspace and CRM access is clean and audited, and the tech guide is deflecting the questions that used to come in over and over.

Where the work lives

Suptask (the Contour Help Hub):every tech and access request becomes a tracked ticket, so nothing slips and response times are measurable.

Rippling:identity, onboarding, and accounts. Where you set people up, remove them cleanly, and build the automations that make that reliable.

Google Workspace admin

accounts, groups, permissions, and shared drives, kept clean and current.

Monday.com and HubSpot:seats and access, plus the CRM workflows the team asks you about.

The tech guide and knowledge base:where you turn a repeat question into an answer the team can self-serve.
