In 2017/18 he got an offer from TSV Hartberg, who was also playing in Austrian Football Second League. TSV Hartberg got promoted in this season, which was the biggest success in the club's history.
After a very successful season, SCR Altach offered him a contract until June 2020. Fischer made his debut in Austria's highest league, Austrian Football Bundesliga, against SV Mattersburg where he was substituted for Stefan Nutz in the 68th minute. A week later he made his debut in the starting eleven against SK Rapid Vienna. He scored his first goal in Bundesliga in August 2018 against FC Red Bull Salzburg.
