He won the Tunis Marathon in 2004 and the Marrakech Marathon in 2005 . In 2006 he won the Ottawa Marathon in a curious way.

He set his personal best of 2:08:20 h in November 2007 as runner-up in the JoongAng Seoul Marathon . Previously, in August of the same year, he had only finished 45th at the World Athletics Championships in Osaka under difficult climatic conditions in a time of 2:33:26 h.
In 2008 Bouramdane finished second in the Boston Marathon in 2:09:04 hours. After a 26th place in the marathon of the Olympic Games in Beijing , he reached fifth place in the New York City Marathon in November . The following year it repeated its placement in New York City. In 2010 he finished fourth in the London Marathon and tenth in the New York City Marathon. In 2011 he finished seventh in London. At the World Championships in Daegu, he was fourth.
