Born in Guayaquil, Ramírez joined C.S.D. Independiente del Valle's youth setup in 2016, from Toreros FC. He made his first team debut at the age of just 17 on 10 July 2018, starting in a 1–3 away loss against S.D. Aucas.
On 30 January 2019, Ramírez moved abroad and joined Real Sociedad on loan until June; he was initially assigned to the reserves in Segunda División B.[1] His loan was extended until 31 December on 28 June, with a buyout clause,[2] which was declined on 10 December.[3]
Upon returning, Ramírez was assigned back at the main squad, being mainly a backup to Jorge Pinos.
He made his debut for the Ecuador national football team on 7 October 2021 in a World Cup qualifier against Bolivia.[4]
