Gómez made his professional debut on 22 January 2019 with Atlas in the Copa MX group stage match against Leones Negros UdeG, losing 2–1.[2] On 29 March, he made his Liga MX debut against Santos Laguna in a 1–0 victory.[3]
In August 2020, Gómez joined Portuguese club Boavista in a year-long loan.[4] He made his Primeira Liga debut with the club on 19 September against C.D. Nacional, playing as a starter and finishing in a 3–3 draw.[5]
Gómez was part of the under-17 side that participated at the 2019 CONCACAF U-17 Championship,[6] where Mexico won the competition. He was included in the Best XI of the tournament.[7] He also participated at the 2019 U-17 World Cup,[8] where Mexico finished runner-up.

In September 2020, less than a year following his participation at the U-17 World Cup, Gómez was called up to the senior national team by Gerardo Martino to participate in October friendlies against the Netherlands and Algeria.[10] He did not make any appearance in those matches and his senior debut would not occur until 31 of May 2024, in a friendly against Bolivia, in which Mexico would take a 1–0 win.[11]
