In 2019, Kibunguchy expanded his horizons by making an appearance in the USL League Two with the San Francisco Glens, earning recognition as a part of the Western Conference All-Star Team.
His professional journey took a significant turn when he was selected as the 18th overall pick in the 2021 MLS SuperDraft by Minnesota United on January 21, 2021.
Subsequently, he officially joined the team on April 3, 2021. Later that year, on May 27, 2021, Kibunguchy embarked on a loan spell with the USL Championship side Sacramento Republic for the remainder of the 2021 season.
Following the conclusion of the 2022 season, Minnesota declined to exercise his contract option, leading Kibunguchy to sign with Orlando City B in MLS Next Pro for the 2023 season.
