The 26-year-old joined the Baggies on trial on Monday and played a full 90 minutes during their 5-1 win at Northampton in midweek setting up two goals.
"Tininho's got a wonderful personality, a nice left foot and is a decent athlete," manager Tony Mowbray said.
"I've certainly got no worries about him with the ball. Just like Filipe [Teixeira] he'll need time to adjust to the different demands of the English game but we believe there's enough raw material there for him to make a positive impact at the club."
Tininho, who was born in Mozambique, is Albion's second Portuguese signing in a week, following hot on the heels of Teixeira's arrival.
