Club career
Kiesenebner was born in Linz, started his career with hometown FC Linz then played with LASK Linz when the two Linz sides merged under the LASK name. He moved to Austria Wien when LASK Linz were relegated in 2001 but struggled to establish himself. In 2002-03 he returned to Upper Austria with surprise 1st League champions SV Pasching and in his two seasons at the Waldstadion he helped Pasching qualify for the UEFA Cup for the first time. This prompted renewed interest from Austria Wien, who bought him for a second time in 2004.
On 1 June 2007, Kiesenebner signed for Norwegian Premier League club Lillestrøm SK, in a Bosman ruling. After his move to Lillestrøm, Kiesenebner has been severely troubled by injuries. He is estimated to be back to full fitness in April 2008. After yet a season troubled with injury in 2008, with little or no playing time at all, Kiesenebner and Lillestrøm came to an agreement to terminate the conctract in November 2008. After two months without club he signed with SC Rheindorf Altach in January 2009.
International career
He made his debut for Austria in an April 2004 friendly match against Luxembourg and has earned 12 caps, scoring one goal.
