In July 2011, Ramos won second place on Pilipinas Got Talent, a reality talent show in ABS-CBN[5][6] and became a recording artist under Star Magic.[1][4] In 2012, he was cast in his first teleserye project, Princess and I, top-billing with Kathryn Bernardo, Daniel Padilla and Enrique Gil.[7]

From 2013 to 2016, he appeared in supporting roles in a string of films such as She's Dating the Gangster, Kid Kulafu, A Second Chance, Honor Thy Father and Everything About Her. His first starring role came as Felix Salonga in the 2016 critically acclaimed coming-of-age film 2 Cool 2 Be 4gotten. He has since been cast in recurring roles the drama A Love to Last (2017) and fantasy series La Luna Sangre (2017–18).

He also starred in indie films such as Riding in Tandem opposite Jason Abalos, released in select cinemas in the Philippines from October 13–19, 2017. It was announced that he was cast in thriller drama Kasunduan which also stars Joey Marquez, Joem Bascon and Ejay Falcon, set to be released in 2018.

He transferred to GMA Network's talent agency, Sparkle GMA Artist Center, in 2020 after 9 years with Star Magic.[3]
