Gilpin began her acting career with guest starring roles in numerous television series including Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Fringe, Medium, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and Elementary.[11] She received further recognition for her starring role as Dr. Carrie Roman in the Showtime comedy-drama series Nurse Jackie, appearing from 2013 to the series' conclusion in 2015.

Her breakthrough came with her starring role as Debbie "Liberty Belle" Eagan in the Netflix comedy-drama series GLOW (2017–2019), which was inspired by the 1980s female professional wrestling league of the same name. She received significant critical acclaim and numerous award nominations for her performance including three Critics' Choice Television Awards for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series and three Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series.

Between 2019 and 2020, Gilpin appeared in the fantasy romantic comedy film Isn't It Romantic, the comedy-drama film A Dog's Journey, the action comedy film Stuber, and the action horror film The Hunt.

She received recognition for her role with a nomination for the Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Movie/Miniseries.[15] In the same year, she appeared in an episode of the Apple TV+ anthology series Roar.

In September 2022, she published her first book, a collection of 20 essays titled All the Women in My Brain: And Other Concerns.[16]

In 2023, Gilpin starred as Sister Simone / Elizabeth Abbott, a nun who battles artificial intelligence in the Peacock science fiction series Mrs. Davis. For her performance, Gilpin received critical acclaim and was nominated for the TCA Award for Individual Achievement in Drama.[17] She had a main voice role as Irene in the Netflix animated adventure series Skull Island.
