Bajamich's career started with Instituto Atlético Central Córdoba, joining in 2016 from his local club Unión de Morrison.

[9] He had previously been an unused substitute in 2018 for matches with Villa Dálmine and Arsenal de Sarandí. [10] [11] Bajamich made his first start in senior football in a 1–0 loss against Guillermo Brown on 3 March 2019. [12] On 21 April, he scored his first professional goal in the final match of the season in a 1–1 draw against Gimnasia y Esgrima (M).

[26] He recorded his first assist for the Dynamo on 29 May in a 3–2 loss to Sporting Kansas City.

On 7 November 2022, Houston declined Bajamich's contract option for 2023, making him a free agent. [30]
On 16 January 2023, Bajamich signed with Estudiantes de Río Cuarto in Primera Nacional. [31] [32] [33] He made his debut for Estudiantes (RC) on 11 February, coming off the bench in a 2–0 loss to CA Temperley.
