Almeida had won a total of four medals (two silver and two bronze) in pistol shooting at the Pan American Games (1995 in Mar de Plata, Argentina, 2007 in Rio de Janeiro, and 2011 in Guadalajara, Mexico). He also captured a silver and a bronze medal in centre-fire and standard pistol at the 2010 ISSF World Shooting Championships in Munich, Germany, with scores of 586 and 574, respectively.

At age thirty-nine, Almeida made his official debut for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he competed in three pistol shooting events. He scored a total of 580 targets in the preliminary rounds of the men's 10 m air pistol, by one point behind Armenia's Norayr Bakhtamyan from the final attempt, finishing only in thirteenth place. Three days later, Almeida placed eighteenth in his second event, 50 m rifle pistol, by three points ahead of Italy's Francesco Bruno, with a total score of 554 targets. For his third and final event, 25 m rapid fire pistol, Almeida was able to shoot a total of 568 targets (284 each on the first and second stage) in the preliminary rounds, finishing only in eleventh place by four points behind China's Liu Zhongsheng.
