In 1985, aged 25, Alvarado was appointed by Augusto Pinochet regime (1973–1990) as a major of Quemchi, a northwest commune in Chiloé Island.[3] Then, in 1990s, he was elected deputy for the 58th District which groupes towns from Chiloé. In this position, he remained sixteen years (1994–2010) until 2009–10 general elections won by centre-rightist Sebastián Piñera, who appointed him as General Undersecretary of the Presidency,[4] charge he held during all Piñera's first government (2010–2014).
In 2018, with Piñera's non-consecutive reelection, he was again named as general undersecretary (2018–2019),[4] as Undersecretary of Regional and Administrative Development (2019–2020)[5] and finally as Ministry General Secretariat of the Presidency.
