Early in his career, Godrich worked as the house engineer at RAK Studios, London, under the producer John Leckie. He met Radiohead while working at RAK on their second album, The Bends (1995). Radiohead hired him to produce OK Computer (1997), which was a major success and brought him attention from major artists. He has produced all of their albums since, and has worked on several projects with the Radiohead singer, Thom Yorke, and the lead guitarist, Jonny Greenwood.

Godrich is a member of the bands Atoms for Peace (with Yorke) and Ultraísta. In 2006, he launched the music webseries From the Basement. In 2010, Godrich and Beck composed the score for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, Godrich's first film work.
