They won both of their events and qualified for the 2010 JGP Final, where they won the bronze medal.

=== 2013–2014 season: Senior debut === Stepanova/Bukin decided to make their senior debut in the 2013–2014 season.

At the 2015 Trophée Éric Bompard, they placed third in the short dance, which was accepted as the final result following the competition's cancellation due to the November 2015 Paris attacks. They finished fourth overall at their next Grand Prix event, the 2015 NHK Trophy. Stepanova/Bukin edged out Ilinykh/Zhiganshin for the bronze medal at the Russian Championships in late December in Ekaterinburg and finished as the third Russian team, in fifth place, in January 2016 at the European Championships in Bratislava.

=== 2016–2017 season === Stepanova/Bukin started their season on the Challenger Series, at the 2016 CS Finlandia Trophy.

A month later they won the bronze medal at the 2018 European Championships after placing second in the short dance and 3rd in the free dance.

In early November Stepanova/Bukin won their first Grand Prix gold medal at the 2018 Grand Prix of Helsinki. They were ranked first in both the Rhythm dance and the free dance and won the gold medal by a margin of about 4 points over the silver medalists, Charlène Guignard / Marco Fabbri. Two weeks later they won their second Grand Prix gold medal at the 2018 Rostelecom Cup. They were ranked first in both programs and beat the silver medalists, Sara Hurtado / Kirill Khaliavin by about 25 points. With two Grand Prix gold medals they qualified for the 2018–19 Grand Prix Final, where they finished fourth.

At the 2019 Russian Championships, Stepanova/Bukin placed second in both programs, taking their third consecutive silver medal, behind Victoria Sinitsina / Nikita Katsalapov, who had also finished ahead of them at the Grand Prix Final. Reflecting afterward, Stepanova said "we didn’t skate without mistakes at nationals and we know what we have to work on. There is nothing we can leave out. We have to work on everything—on technique, emotions and our mistakes, every day. You need to skate perfectly."<ref name=GS181221 />

Competing next at the 2019 European Championships, Stepanova/Bukin placed second in the rhythm dance, behind Papadakis/Cizeron, earning their best score to date on the Tango Romantica pattern dance and capitalizing on serious errors by rivals Sinitsina/Katsalapov.<ref name=GS190125 /> They placed second in the free dance as well, winning the silver medal overall. Bukin called it "a big step forward for us."<ref name=GS190126 /> Stepanova/Bukin concluded the season at the 2019 World Championships, where they placed third in the rhythm dance, winning a small bronze medal, but dropped to fourth place after the free dance. Stepanova pronounced them "ready to fight for the top three in the world."<ref name=GS190323 />

=== 2019–2020 season: Third European bronze === [[File:2020 European Figure Skating Championships Ice dancing medal ceremonies 2020 01 25 7596.jpg|thumb|279x279px|Stepanova/Bukin ''(right)'' at the 2020 European Championships]] Having skipped the Challenger series due to Stepanova recovering from a back injury, they began the season at 2019 Skate America. They placed second in the short program.<ref name=GS191019 /> They narrowly won the free dance over gold medalists Madison Hubbell / Zachary Donohue, taking silver overall. Stepanova said she was "more pleased with our performance than yesterday."<ref name=GS191020 /> They won a second silver medal at the 2019 NHK Trophy, qualifying to their second Grand Prix Final.<ref name=GS191123 /> They placed fourth at the Final for the second year, notably placing ahead of domestic rivals Sinitsina/Katsalapov.<ref name=GS191208 />

Competing at the 2020 Russian Championships, Stepanova/Bukin were second in the rhythm dance.<ref name=GS191226 /> They placed first in the free dance, but remained in second place overall behind Sinitsina/Katsalapov. Stepanova remarked "we’re happy with what we did."<ref name=GS191227 />

In January, Stepanova/Bukin competed at the 2020 European Championships in Graz, Austria. They placed fourth in the rhythm dance and third in the free dance, taking their fourth European medal, a bronze, behind Russian teammates Sinitsina/Katsalapov and Papadakis/Cizeron of France.<ref name=GS200123 /><ref name=GS200125 /> They had been assigned to compete at the World Championships in Montreal, but these were cancelled as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.<ref name=CBC200311 />

=== 2020–2021 season: First national title === Stepanova suffered from a reoccurrence of a back injury and sought treatment in Germany, as a result of which the team missed the 2020 Russian senior test skates.<ref name=IFS300924 /> They were scheduled to compete on the Grand Prix at the 2020 Rostelecom Cup, but withdrew due to a COVID-19 outbreak at their training centre.<ref name=TASS2-201116 /> It was subsequently reported that both had caught the virus in succession, leaving them only three weeks to prepare for the national championships.<ref name=GS201224 />

With rivals Sinitsina/Katsalapov withdrawing from the 2021 Russian Championships due to contracting COVID-19 as well, Stepanova/Bukin entered the event as the heavy favourites to finally take the title. They won the rhythm dance by 3.26 points over Zahorski/Guerreiro.<ref name=GS201224 /> They won the free dance as well by a 5.96 point margin, taking the gold medal for the first time at the Russian Championships. Stepanova said afterward "there was not much time for the preparation and we were nervous. We didn't want to skate worse than we did last year." While the European Championships were already cancelled due to the pandemic, they were assigned to the Russian team for the 2021 World Championships in Stockholm.<ref name=GS201225 />

Stepanova called the rhythm dance mistakes "a huge lesson for us."<ref name=GS210327 /> Their placement combined with Sinitsina/Katsalapov's gold medal qualified three berths for Russian dance teams at the 2022 Winter Olympics.<ref name=ISU-2022OWG />

They said afterward that they felt lacking in confidence heading into the event.<ref name=GS211106 /> They won a bronze medal as well at their second event, the 2021 Internationaux de France, with Bukin saying that they had "made a little step forward since our first Grand Prix in Italy and we are more satisfied with what we did here."<ref name=GS211120 /><ref name=OC211120 />

At the 2022 Russian Championships, Stepanova/Bukin were second in the rhythm dance behind Sinitsina/Katsalapov.
