In the NCAA, he was one of the key players for the Letran Knights that helped the team win the 2005-06 Championship. While in Letran, Faundo was also teammates with future PBA players RJ Jazul and Rey Guevarra. Together, they led the Knights to another finals appearance in 2007, but lost to rivals San Beda Red Lions.

On 2010, Faundo was signed by ASEAN Basketball League club Brunei Barracudas as an import for the 2010–11 ABL season.

With the Elite, he had his best season in the professional ranks, averaging career-highs in minutes (25.0 minutes per game), points (9.6 points per game), and rebounds (5.8 rebounds per game) and was one of the top five centers in the 2014–15 season based on player efficiency rating.[2][3]
