José Luís was promoted to hometown's S.L. Benfica's first team at only 18, finishing his first season with 25 games - 20 starts - and two goals as the side won the national championship. In the following ten years, he was irregularly used by the Reds, his best year being 1983–85 as he appeared in 57 matches combined (six goals), winning the 1984 league and the following year's Portuguese Cup; he also played the full 90 minutes in the 1982–83 UEFA Cup final's first hand, a 0–1 away loss against R.S.C. Anderlecht (1–2 on aggregate).
Luís left Benfica in the 1987 summer and signed for C.S. Marítimo, competing in a further four top division seasons, and eventually amassing totals in the competition of 283 games and 28 goals. He retired in June 1992 at the age of 34, after one year with A.D. Ovarense in the second level.
Subsequently, Luís worked as a manager in Malaysia, Hong Kong and Vietnam, also coaching teams in his country's third division (including his former team Marítimo's reserves).
José Luís played four times for Portugal during two years, his debut being on 21 September 1983 against Finland for the UEFA Euro 1984 qualifiers, scoring the fourth goal in a 5–0 home win. He was not, however, picked for the final stages in France, with the national team finishing third.
Luís was appointed at newly-created East Timor national team in late 2004, coaching the country in its first-ever international competition, the 2004 Tiger Cup.
