In the summer of 2010 he switched to the second team at 1. FC Köln . Two years later he made the leap into the professional team under coach Holger Stanislawski . There he made his professional debut in the DFB-Pokal match between 1. FC Köln against SpVgg Unterhaching (2: 1) on August 18, 2012 and has since played regularly for Cologne - initially in the 2nd Bundesliga which was only promoted to the top German league in summer 2014. Hector, who was now a regular in the team, was soon nominated for the national team. After appearances at the 2016 European Championships and the 2017 Confederations Cup, many clubs were interested in signing Hector, but Hector turned down all offers, including one from FC Barcelona .

With the fifth place of 1. FC Köln in the Bundesliga season 2016/17 , which means Cologne qualified for the Europa League 2017/18 , Hector also played internationally at club level. In the game at Arsenal on September 14, 2017, he injured his right ankle, so that he was out until the end of the year.

Despite the threatened relegation of 1. FC Köln, he extended his contract term in April 2018 to 2023; He left an exit clause unused. After relegation to the second Bundesliga, Hector was appointed team captain for the 2018/19 season and retained the position even after being promoted again in 2019.

On November 7, 2014, Hector was appointed to the German national team for the first time by national coach Joachim Löw at the age of 24 . Before that, he had never played in a youth performance center or for a junior national team. Such a late discovery is considered to be extremely unusual in today's organized youth promotion.

Löw nominated him for the European Championship qualifier against Gibraltar and the shortly afterwards friendly against Spain . Hector made his international debut against Gibraltar on November 14, 2014 in Nuremberg , when he came on for Erik Durm in the 72nd minute (result 4-0). During the long tenure of national coach Joachim Löw, he was the 100th player used by Löw in an international match. He was in the starting line-up for the first time on March 25, 2015 in the Fritz-Walter-Stadion in Kaiserslautern in the friendly against Australia (result 2-2).

In the position of left full-back, for which the DFB had long been looking for a suitable player, he established himself as a regular player. He was the only national player in the 2015 calendar year to start all nine international matches and always played the full distance; The only exception was an injury-related substitution in the last game of the year against France in Paris , while the terrorist attacks were taking place in the city .

Germany qualified first in the group for the European Championship; Hector was used in seven out of ten qualifying games. In the 4-1 win against Italy on March 29, 2016, he scored his first international goal with the 3-0 goal.

Hector was in the squad for the 2016 European Football Championship in France, where he played all six tournament games of the German team over the full season. In the quarter-finals against Italy on July 2, 2016 in Bordeaux , he converted the decisive penalty in a penalty shoot-out to advance to the semi-finals. Together with the game for third place between Czechoslovakia and Italy in 1980 with a total of 18 penalties, the penalty shoot-out is the longest penalty shoot-out in a European Football Championship to date and the one with the most penalties missed (7). Hector started as the ninth German and last marksman and scored. He had never scored a penalty in his professional career. Following the encounter, he was named " Man of the Match ".

As part of the qualification for the 2018 World Cup , in which Hector was used in eight out of ten games, he scored two goals for the first time on November 11, 2016 against San Marino and thus contributed to the highest victory in the World Cup qualification (8: 0). As group winners, Germany qualified directly for the World Cup.

When Confederations Cup 2017 in Russia he was in the squad again. At this tournament, for which Löw renounced almost all long-term regular players, Hector was one of the more experienced players in the DFB selection, despite his only 29 internationals, including many debutants who wanted to recommend themselves to the national coach for the future. The competition was won with a final victory against Chile (1-0). Hector played four out of five games; only in the last group game against Cameroon he was not used.

At the 2018 World Cup , he played two of the three group games of the national team that was eliminated from the tournament after the preliminary round.
