Pucheta came through the youth ranks of Argentinos Juniors, eventually signing his first professional contract in June 2020; penning terms until 31 December 2024.[3] He made the breakthrough into first-team football at the age of eighteen, initially featuring in pre-season friendlies against the likes of Talleres and Atlanta.[4][5] His senior debut arrived on 31 October 2020, after the centre-forward was substituted on with seven minutes remaining of a goalless draw at home to San Lorenzo in the Copa de la Liga Profesional.[1] In that competition, Pucheta scored his first goal on 30 November in a 4–1 win away against Aldosivi.[1]

In July 2021, Pucheta joined Tristán Suárez on a loan deal for the rest of the year.[6] In January 2022, he was sent out on a new loan, this time to San Martín SJ, for one year.[7] However, the spell was cut short half through, at it was exchanged with a loan spell at Brown de Adrogué instead, until the end of 2023, which was confirmed in June 2022.[8]
