Born in Pinerolo, in the Province of Turin (now part of the Metropolitan City of Turin), Piedmont, Bunino started his career at Piedmontese club Pro Vercelli. He made his Serie B debut in the last round of the 2012–13 Serie B season. Bunino was brought on for substitute Antonio Romano. Vercelli were relegated from Serie B that season, after finishing third from bottom in Group A of the Allievi league.
During the 2013–14 season, his team finished as the winners of Group A in the Berretti reserve league. However, the team was eliminated by Südtirol in the first round of the play-offs.
Bunino played three more Serie B games for the first team in the first half of the 2014–15 Serie B season.
