Guliakova made her international debut in the first Junior Grand Prix event at the 2017 Junior Grand Prix Australia in Brisbane, Australia; she was ranked second in both segments and won the silver medal behind teammate Alexandra Trusova.^[2]

2020–21 season

Competing domestically in the Russian Cup series, Guliakova placed fifth at the third stage in Sochi.^[3] She was assigned to make her Grand Prix debut at the 2020 Rostelecom Cup, the ISU having opted to run the Grand Prix based largely on geographic location due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She placed fourth in the short program.^[4] Third in the free skate, she rose to the bronze medal position following an unexpectedly poor performance from Alexandra Trusova, who dropped to fourth place.^[5]

On December 3, it was announced that Guliakova had to withdraw from the fifth stage of the Cup of Russia series after training mate Elizaveta Tuktamysheva contracted COVID-19.^[6] She subsequently competed at the 2021 Russian Championships, placing eighth in the short program after stepping out on her triple Lutz. She then placed fourteenth in the free skate, dropping to twelfth overall.^[7]
