## Career
### Internacional

Born in Morro Redondo, Rio Grande do Sul, Heitor joined Internacional's youth categories in 2017, from hometown side Progresso FC. On 3 April 2019, after impressing with the under-20 side in the Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior, he renewed his contract with the club. He made his first team – and Série A – debut on 14 July, starting in a 1–0 away loss against Athletico Paranaense.
On 10 December 2019, after finishing the year as a first-choice, Heitor renewed his contract with Inter until December 2022. He scored his first senior goal on 8 February 2020, netting the opener in a 2–0 Campeonato Gaúcho home win over Novo Hamburgo, but subsequently lost his starting spot during the campaign, after the arrivals of Renzo Saravia and Rodinei.
Heitor returned to starting spot in 2021, after Rodinei left and Saravia suffered a knee injury. On 10 March of that year, he was elected one of the 11 best under-20 players on South America for 2020 by IFFHS.
On 18 January 2022, Heitor renewed his contract with Internacional for a further year. On 22 June, despite losing his starting spot to Fabricio Bustos, he further extended his link for another six months.

#### Loan to Cercle Brugge

On 23 July 2022, Heitor joined Cercle Brugge in Belgium on loan, with an option to buy. He made his debut abroad on 7 August, coming on as a second-half substitute for Robbe Decostere in a 2–0 away loss against Standard Liège, but only featured in six more matches (all as a substitute) before leaving.

#### Loan to Ferroviária

On 29 December 2022, Heitor was announced at Ferroviária on loan for the 2023 Campeonato Paulista. A starter in the competition, he scored once in ten appearances as AFE suffered relegation.

#### Loan to Mirassol

On 4 April 2023, Heitor moved to Série B side Mirassol also in a temporary deal.

#### Guarani

Heitor made his league debut against São Bernardo on 25 January 2024. He scored his first league goal against Ituano on 19 June 2024, scoring in the 89th minute.
