Born in Vieira do Minho in the Braga District, Moita graduated in physical education from the University of Porto. From 2008 to 2024, he was part of the coaching staff of Leonardo Jardim at G.D.

In January 2025, Moita told Mais Futebol that he was planning on becoming a head coach. On 25 November 2025, after Vítor Matos departed for Swansea City, Moita was given his first such job, at C.S. Marítimo of Liga Portugal 2. He signed until the end of the season with the option of one more, and had a release clause of €2 million. Eight people made up his coaching staff, including former club captain Edgar Costa. He made his debut five days later in a 2–0 win away to Portimonense S.C. to put his club level on points with Sporting CP B at the top of the table.
