Baiaram made his professional debut for Universitatea Craiova on 11 July 2019, coming on for Bogdan Vătăjelu in the 90th minute of a 3–2 win over Sabail in the first qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League.[1] Three days later, he started in a Liga I fixture against Academica Clinceni, also a 3–2 victory.[2]

During his first season as a senior at the club, Baiaram amassed 13 appearances in all competitions without scoring. On 27 August 2020, he netted his first goal for the Alb-albaștrii in a 1–2 Europa League away loss to Locomotive Tbilisi.[3] He recorded his debut goal in the top flight on 6 March 2021, scoring in a 1–0 defeat of Botoșani.[4]

On 15 May 2021, Baiaram contributed with his team's only goal in a 1–3 Liga I loss to defending champions CFR Cluj, and one week later played in the 3–2 victory against Astra Giurgiu in the Cupa României final.[5] At the start of the 2022–23 campaign, Baiaram was handed over the number 10 shirt.[6]
