Club career
Rodriguez started his professional career in Torneo Descentralizado with Cienciano, where he played from 1995 to 2003. He managed to score for the Cuzco based club in the 2nd leg of the 2001 Championship Playoffs against Alianza Lima in the 83rd minute, which then forced the match to a penalty shoot-out. His club lost the Championship 2–4 on penalties.
He made his league debut for Real Garcilaso in the second round (the first round was played by reserve players due to the Player's strike) of the 2012 season against Alianza Lima. Playing at the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega stadium, Rodriguez made history in that match with Real Garcilaso by scoring the club's first goal at home in the top-flight, the Torneo Descentralizado. His goal came in the 9th minute of the match by heading in a cross from Eduardo Uribe, and later in the second half Rodriguez provided an assist for Andy Pando's winning goal, which resulted in a 2–1 over the runners-up of the previous season. This match was Real Garcilaso's first home win ever in the Descentralizado.
