In Honduras he played for F.C. Motagua and in the United States for Tulsa Roughnecks.

In 1982, he almost lost a leg due to infection.[8]

After retiring, he went into management and managed Aurora, Escuintla, Xelajú, Juventud Retalteca, Sacachispas, Coatepeque, Ayutla, C.D. Jalapa, Chimaltenango, San Marcos, Universidad, Deportivo Malacateco and Rosario.

In 2004, he was in charge of Tipografía Nacional in Guatemala's third division.[9]

He then returned in 2005 to El Salvador to coach Chalatenango where he was dismissed in September 2005[10] and later became in charge of Guatemala Second Division side Deportivo San Pedro.[11]

In December 2009 joined Atlético Balboa.[12]

In 2017, he returned to Chalatenango, but, problems with the team's directive caused that Mijangos was not confirmed until April 8.
