In June 2018, Independiente Rivadavia of Primera B Nacional completed the signing of Zules Caicedo.[2] He made his professional debut on 25 August against Los Andes, with his new team winning 0–1 at the Estadio Eduardo Gallardón.[2] After seventeen total appearances as they reached the promotion play-offs, Zules Caicedo switched Independiente for newly-promoted Primera B Nacional outfit Alvarado on 18 July 2019.[2][6] Six months later, Zules Caicedo sealed a move to Primera División side Unión Santa Fe.[7][8] He terminated his contract on 3 February 2021, having not featured competitively; he made the bench twelve times.[2]
