Chiu hit .290/.324/.452 with six RBI in eight games in the 2017 U-18 Baseball World Cup, and also stole 2 bases. His best outing was a 4-for-5 and falling a homer shy of a cycle to win over Nicaragua in September 6. He tied for the team lead in RBI with Tien-Hsin Kuo. His eight runs tied Triston Casas and Felipe Aguilar for 8th in the event. He was picked by the Lamigo Monkeys in the 3rd round of the 2020 CPBL draft. Chiu spent most of his time in the minors on the first two years in his career. In 2021, the young outfielder finally broke out, and hit .258/.313/.339 with 3 dingers.
