After spending a brief period trailing with Major League Soccer side New York Red Bulls, Raus turned professional when he signed with ?KS ?om?a of the Polish Second Division in 2007. While at ?om?a Raus scored 5 goals in twenty-two appearances, but left at the end of the season.

He made his debut for Fisher on November 11 against St. Albans City, and scored his first goal on February 18 against Eastleigh.
After Fisher folded at the end of the 2008/09 season, Raus returned home to the United States, and signed with the Tampa Bay Rowdies of the new USSF Division 2 Professional League in April 2010. Raus never played a game for the Rowdies, and moved to Real Maryland Monarchs in the USL Second Division later in the season.
