Born in Salgado, Gilvan made his professional debut with fourth tier Iraty Sport Club in 2010, before moving to Londrina Esporte Clube of the same tier two years later.[2] On 19 May 2014, he signed for Associação Atlética Ponte Preta of the second tier on a loan deal.[3]
After having ended the season winning promotion to the first tier, Gilvan chose to stay back in the second, and signed a one-year loan deal with Ceará Sporting Club on 9 January 2015.[4] He made his league debut in May, playing the whole ninety minutes of a 1–0 defeat against Paraná Clube.[5]
On 6 January 2016, Gilvan moved to Paysandu Sport Club on a year long loan deal.[1] He scored a brace for the club on 20 August, in a 2–0 league victory against his former club Ceará.[6] He won the 2016 season of the Copa Verde with the club. On 5 July 2017, he was released by the club due to a clause in his contract - he had to be released if he received any offer from a Série A club.[7] He subsequently signed with Atlético Goianiense.[8] Though the club was relegated at the season, he signed a one-year contract extension in December.[9]
On 13 January 2018, Gilvan moved abroad for the first time and signed a three-year deal with Romanian Liga I club CFR Cluj.[10] He returned to Atlético Goianiense in July 2018 without making an appearance for the Romanian club.[11]
