In December 2017, Seifert scored the fastest century in a domestic Twenty20 match in New Zealand, batting for Northern Districts against Auckland in the 2017–18 Super Smash.[2] He made 100 runs off 40 deliveries.[3]

He was the leading run-scorer in the 2017–18 Plunket Shield season for Northern Districts, with 703 runs in nine matches.[4] In June 2018, he was awarded a contract with Northern Districts for the 2018–19 season.[5]

In July 2020, he was named in the Trinbago Knight Riders squad for the 2020 Caribbean Premier League.[6][7] In October 2020, he replaced the injured Ali Khan in the Kolkata Knight Riders team in the 2020 Indian Premier League (IPL), but did not play a match during the competition.[8] Seifert was retained in the Kolkata squad for the following season's IPL but did not play before the suspension of the league in May during the COVID-19 pandemic. His departure from India was delayed after he tested positive for the virus.[9][10]

In February 2022, he was bought by the Delhi Capitals in the auction for the 2022 Indian Premier League tournament.[11] In July 2022, he was signed by the Dambulla Giants for the third edition of the Lanka Premier League.[12]
