Paraná Clube saw Giuliano as a hot prospect for the future and signed him to his first professional contract on 13 February 2007.

In 2009, Giuliano was signed by Internacional, and made his debut on 2 November that year. On 18 August 2010, with his team mates, he won the Copa Libertadores. Beating Chivas 3–2 at home he also scored in the game.

Giuliano was signed by FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk for €11 million and registered officially on 2 March 2011. Paraná Clube later submitted a claim to FIFA Dispute Resolution Chamber for overdue solidarity contribution of €275,000 and upheld by the arbitration.[1]

On 15 June 2014, Giuliano was transferred to Grêmio by €6 million, signing a contract until July 2018.[2]

On 21 July 2016, he was sold to the Russian club Zenit Saint Petersburg for €7 million.[3]
