As a junior, Mäki won bronze in the sprint event at the 2014 U20 World Championships in Val di Fiemme. He made his World Cup debut in 2014, and placed in the top thirty for the first time in January 2016. So far, he has two podiums in the World Cup, one from team sprint (Planica 2020) and one from relay (Lahti 2021), and his best individual result is a 10th place that he reached at two sprint events during the 2018-19 season.

In 2019, at his first World Championships in Seefeld, Mäki placed 13th in the sprint event. In the 2021 World Championships in Oberstdorf, he again placed thirteenth in the individual sprint. Three days later, though, Mäki won his first World Championships medal when and teammate Ristomatti Hakola won the silver medal at the team sprint event.[1][2]

Mäki has several medals from Finnish National Championships and represents Pohti Ski Team in national competitions.
