A movement of change is here

Our vision is simple. We are united by a common mission to deliver technology that fundamentally changes how people in the energy industry work.

We exist to empower the people who power the world. The skilled workforce of the energy industry has been historically ignored by technology. We're here to change that.

We are looking for Engineers to join our new Software Engineering Hub in Belfast, Northern Ireland as we continue to build a scalable, highly-resilient and services orientated platform.

Since its inception in 2014, RigUp has now raised more than $450 million. October 2019 represented a key milestone as we raised $300 million Series D funding round led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), existing investors Founders Fund, Bedrock Capital, and Quantum Energy Partners also put money in the round in addition to new investors UK-based Baillie Gifford and Brookfield Growth Partners.
