DAY TO DAY

What it's like
working at our plant.

Factory work in Texas

We're a real working factory, which means it can get hot, loud and busy in our warehouse -- even if you work at a desk. It's also an exciting place to be, especially if you love music.

No vinyl experience required

We look for curious, dependible and professional team members. Plenty of our best operators came in knowing nothing about records but were willing to learn.

Small team, real ownership

We don't have time to micromanage here or hide behind layers of bureaucracy. Each team member has real impact and the chance to be a day to day leader.

Quality control listening to a test pressing

Training on the job

No pressing experience needed. We teach you the machines, and give you real ownership over your work.

INTERNSHIPS

Real experience for college students

One of the best things about Gold Rush Vinyl is our internship program, helping students and recent grads gain professional experience. We also run seasonal programs with Women In Vinyl.

Our internships are not coffee-fetching, answer-the-phone kind of gigs. We trust our interns with real business projects where they can take risks, pitch ideas and demonstrate impact.

Our intern alumni have gone on to work at BMI, Capitol Records, C3 Presents, Rolling Stone, SXSW, TikTok and Warner Music Group, while others have landed full-time roles right here at Gold Rush Vinyl.

Gold Rush Vinyl altered the course of my career. I learned the inner workings of vinyl production, artist relations and merchandising distribution, from independent locals to high-profile artists like Dolly Parton, Weezer and Fall Out Boy. While I was there, we went viral for being the first pressing plant to show the world how colorful beads turn into music. The skills I gained are ones I'll carry the rest of my career.
