Rafaelle signed with Changchun Zhuoyue of the Chinese Women's Super League in 2016, one of three Brazilian players to do so with Raquel and Darlene. Terms of the deals were not released, but in an interview with Globo Esporte, Rafaelle said the pay was considerably more than she could make in Brazil. In 2017, fellow Brazilian national team player Cristiane would join her at Changchun Zhuoyue.

In February 2015 Rafaelle was included in an 18-month residency programme intended to prepare Brazil's national team for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada and the 2016 Rio Olympics.

At the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup, Rafaelle formed a makeshift center-back partnership with Mônica. They kept clean sheets in all three matches as Brazil qualified from their group without conceding a goal. In the second round match against Australia, Brazil exited the competition after losing 1–0. Rafaelle remained in Canada as part of the Brazilian selection for the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto.

In January 2014 Rafaelle was picked in the second round of the 2014 NWSL College Draft by expansion team Houston Dash. After playing one season she was waived by Houston Dash, but FC Kansas City acquired her rights the following week. In March 2015 Kansas City announced that Rafaelle would not play in the 2015 National Women's Soccer League season as she was in training with her national team Brazil.

Rafaelle played for Brazil's youth teams at the inaugural 2008 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in New Zealand and the 2010 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup held in Germany. Her senior debut came in December 2011, as a substitute in a 4–0 win over Chile at the 2011 Torneio Internacional Cidade de São Paulo de Futebol Feminino. She started her first match for Brazil's senior team in March 2012, against Canada.
