Mawaya began his club career with Hwange Colliery,[2] appearing for the team for several years before leaving in 2016 as part of a mass exodus from the club.[3] He joined ZPC Kariba where he played for five years, albeit interrupted by a single season at Ngezi Platinum.[4] In 2020, he moved to Triangle United, stating that he viewed the club as a new beginning for his career.[5] In February 2022, he joined Bulawayo Chiefs.[6]
In January 2017, Mawaya received his first call-up to the Zimbabwe national team ahead of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.[7] In June, he made his senior international debut, registering a clean sheet in Zimbabwe's 6–0 victory over Seychelles during the group stages of the 2017 COSAFA Cup.[8]
