He served on the Raritan Borough Council from 1990 to 1995 and on the Somerset County Board of Chosen Freeholders from 2007 to 2011.

In 2011, Ciattarelli ran for the open General Assembly seat in the 16th legislative district, vacated by Denise Coyle, who chose not to run for re-election due to redistricting.

Biondi died two days after the election, and Ciattarelli was selected to fill out the remainder of his term. After stepping down from his freeholder position, he was sworn in on December 5, 2011. He was sworn into his full term on January 10, 2012.

He currently resides in Hillsborough Township.
