Real Sociedad
Bautista was born in Mahón, Menorca, Balearic Islands, but moved to Errenteria, Gipuzkoa, Basque Country at a young age. He was a Real Sociedad youth graduate after starting out at Touring KE, and was promoted to the former's reserve team in the Segunda División B on 23 June 2014 having made several appearances in that season's UEFA Youth League.

Bautista made his senior debut on 23 August 2014, coming on as a late substitute for Eneko Capilla in a 3–3 home draw against UB Conquense in the Segunda División B. He scored his first senior goal on 27 September, opening the 4–0 home rout of CD Guadalajara.

On 25 February 2016, Bautista renewed his contract until 2020. He appeared in his first competitive match – and in La Liga – on 24 April, replacing fellow youth graduate Mikel Oyarzabal in the dying minutes of a 0–0 draw at Villarreal CF.

Bautista scored his first professional goal on 8 May 2016, the winner in a 2–1 home win over Rayo Vallecano. Ahead of the 2017–18 campaign, he was definitively promoted to the main squad.

On 11 July 2019, having been used mainly as a backup to Willian José first and Alexander Isak later, Bautista was loaned to Belgian club K.A.S. Eupen for one year. On 3 April 2021, he did not leave the bench for Real in the delayed 2020 Copa del Rey final against Athletic Bilbao, which ended in a 1–0 victory; additionally, he netted in both group-stage fixtures of the UEFA Europa League against HNK Rijeka (1–0 in Croatia, 2–2 at the Anoeta Stadium).

On 26 August 2021, Bautista moved to Segunda División side CD Leganés on a one-year loan deal.
