Born in Santa Maria da Feira, Lameira had two spells at hometown club C.D. Feirense as a youth, either side of one season at Sporting CP. In 2013, he joined FC Porto's ranks, and on 22 September 2018, he made his professional debut with the reserve team in a LigaPro match against U.D.

He played seven games over the season, scoring once on the final day on 18 May 2019 in a 2–2 draw away to Vitória de Guimarães B.

Lameira signed for U.D. Leiria in the third-tier Campeonato de Portugal ahead of the 2019–20 season; he was described by José Roque of the Diário de Leiria as their best signing that transfer window. On 31 January 2020 he moved back up to the second tier on an 18-month deal with Académica de Coimbra; unused, he moved back to the third level and Real S.C. in June.

On 7 July 2021, Lameira signed a one-year deal at S.C.U. Torreense of the new Liga 3. He played 25 times as they won promotion as champions in his first season, scoring once as the winner in a 2–1 comeback victory at home to F.C. Felgueiras 1932 on 2 April 2022. He then signed for another season. He played 30 times as the Torres Vedras-based club came 9th in the second tier, scoring once in a 3–0 home win over former club Porto B on 11 March 2023.
