As a student at the [Waterford Institute of Technology](/source/Waterford_Institute_of_Technology), Gleeson joined the [senior hurling team](/source/Waterford_IT_GAA) during his second year. On 1 March 2015, he was selected at left wing-forward when WIT faced the [University of Limerick](/source/University_of_Limerick) in the [Fitzgibbon Cup final](/source/2015_Fitzgibbon_Cup#Final).

On 14 July, he scored 0-03, including two frees, in a 2-19 apiece draw with [Limerick](/source/Limerick_GAA) in the [Munster final](/source/2013_All-Ireland_Minor_Hurling_Championship#Munster_Minor_Hurling_Championship).[7] Gleeson retained his position at centre-back for the replay on 23 July, however, he ended on the losing side following a 1-20 to 4-08 defeat.[8] On 8 September, he scored a point from a free when Waterford defeated [Galway](/source/Galway_GAA) by 1-21 to 0-16 in the [All-Ireland final](/source/2013_All-Ireland_Minor_Hurling_Championship#All-Ireland_Minor_Hurling_Championship).[9]

On 3 May 2015, Gleeson was named at centre-back but played much of the game at right wing-back when Waterford faced Cork in the [National League final](/source/2015_National_Hurling_League#Division_1_Final). He scored 0-02 and collected a winners' medal following the 1-24 to 0-17 victory.[16] On 12 July 2015, Gleeson scored 0-02 from right wing-back when Waterford were beaten for the fourth time in six seasons by Tipperary in the [Munster final](/source/2015_Munster_Senior_Hurling_Championship_Final).[17] He ended the season by being nominated for an [All-Star](/source/GAA_All_Stars_Awards).[18]

On 1 May 2016, Gleeson was at centre-back when Waterford lined out in the [National League final](/source/2016_National_Hurling_League#Division_1_Final_&_Replay). He scored 0-02 before being substituted in the 63rd minute as Waterford drew 0-22 apiece with Clare.[19] Gleeson switched to centre-forward and scored 0-03 in the replay, which Waterford lost by 1-23 to 2-19.[20] On 10 July, he scored 0-02 from left corner-forward when Waterford suffered a 5-19 to 0-13 defeat by Tipperary in the [Munster final](/source/2016_Munster_Senior_Hurling_Championship_Final).[21] Gleeson ended the season by becoming only the second player ever to win the [Hurler of the Year](/source/All_Stars_Hurler_of_the_Year) and [Young Hurler of the Year](/source/All_Stars_Young_Hurler_of_the_Year) awards in the same year.[22] He also claimed the centre-forward berth on the All-Star team.

On 3 September 2017, Gleeson was named at centre-forward when Waterford faced [Galway](/source/Galway_GAA) in the [All-Ireland final](/source/2017_All-Ireland_Senior_Hurling_Championship_Final). He ended the game as a runner-up following Galway's 0-26 to 2-17 victory.[23] Gleeson ended the season by securing a third successive All-Star nomination.[24]

Gleeson's 2018 season was blighted by a series of injuries. A pulled quad hampered him during the early rounds of the [National League](/source/2018_National_Hurling_League) while he also suffered an infected cut on his ankle. Just before the start of the [Munster Championship](/source/2018_All-Ireland_Senior_Hurling_Championship#Munster_Senior_Hurling_Championship) he sustained a hamstring injury after playing just 14 minutes of a club game with Mount Sion.[25]
