Marmottan played her first FIS race in December 2003 and reached the podium for the first time a year later. The first victory followed in March 2006. In January 2005 and January 2006, she took part in competitions in the European Cup for the first time, but did not yet reach the points. Since the 2006/07 season, the French woman regularly starts in the European Cup. On January 6, 2007, she took her first points in the Slalom of Melchsee-Frutt with the surprising seventh. Previously, a 38th place was her best result. From now on, she was able to classify regularly in the dot length, reached another three top 10 results this winter and only narrowly missed her first podium in the second departure of Santa Caterina at the end of the season. At the 2007 Junior World Championships, she achieved eighth place in the giant slalom.

In the 2007/08 European Cup season, Marmottan was far from being able to repeat the previous year’s results. She had to struggle with many failures and only came in the top 30. It was better at the 2008 Junior World Championships in Formigal, where she was tenth in the giant slalom and 13th in slalom. In the 2008/09 European Cup season, she was able to classify her regularly in the points and reached four top 10 results. Her best result was the sixth place in the super combination of Caspoggio.

In the winter of 2008/09 she also contested her first four World Cup races, but she could not qualify for the second round in any of these giant slalom. After she remained without a result in the first two World Cup races of the 2009/10 season, she reached 16th place in the giant slalom of Aspen on November 28, 2009 and won world Cup points for the first time. Marmottan took part in the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver and, as the second best French woman, took 11th place in the giant slalom. At the end of winter she reached her first podium in the European Cup with second place in the Slalom of Kranjska Gora.

On December 12, 2010, Marmottan scored her best World Cuper result with 4th place in the giant slalom of St. Moritz. She equalized this result on February 6, 2011 in the giant slalom of Zwiesel. At the 2011 Alpine World Ski World Championships in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, she won the team competition with the French team, she took 14th place in the giant slalom. On March 1, 2011, she suffered a shining and fabric broken in the right leg while entering the European Cup slalom in Zakopane. [first] In the following season 2011/12, Marmottan drove the fastest ten in three World Cup giant slaloms.

The first World Cup podium placement succeeded in the giant slalom of Åre on March 6, 2014. In May 2016, Marmottan announced their end of their career. [2]
