Born and raised in Switzerland, he began his football career at Grasshopper Club Zürich, where he played for the club's youth teams.[3] He was loaned out to 1. Liga clubs United Zürich and Wohlen before ending his contract with Grasshoppers.[4][5]

In early 2020, Pinthus joined the Azkals Development Team (ADT) of the Philippines Football League (PFL) and was eventually loaned out in August to fellow PFL club United City.[6][7] He made his PFL debut on 28 October, keeping a clean sheet for United City as they defeated his parent club ADT, 1–0.[8] He was awarded the PFL Golden Glove for keeping three clean sheets and conceding only one goal in the whole 2020 season.[9][10][11]

On 16 January 2021, United City announced that they had signed in Pinthus on a permanent basis owing to his performance while on loan with the club.[12]
