Coaching career
Louisville
Moore joined the Louisville staff as a graduate assistant in 2009 under head coach Steve Kragthorpe, and continued in that role under new head coach Charlie Strong through 2011. In 2012, he was hired as a full-time assistant, working as tight ends coach through the 2013 season.
During his time as a graduate assistant, Moore earned a master's degree in sports administration.
Central Michigan
In February 2014, Moore was hired as tight ends coach at Central Michigan by head coach Dan Enos, and in 2015 was retained by new head coach John Bonamego. In 2017, Moore was named assistant head coach and recruiting coordinator in addition to serving as tight ends coach.
Michigan
On January 15, 2018, Moore was hired by the University of Michigan as the new tight ends coach. After three seasons as the tight ends coach, it was announced on January 25, 2021, that Moore would shift from tight ends to become the offensive line coach for the Wolverines, and would add the title of co-offensive coordinator. Under Moore's leadership, the Michigan offensive line won the Joe Moore Award as the best offensive line in the country in both 2021 and 2022. This is the first time that a school has won the award in back-to-back seasons since the award was established in 2015.
In the wake of Jim Harbaugh's three-game suspension, self-imposed by the University of Michigan, to open the 2023 season, Moore served as interim head coach for the team's third game of the season, against Bowling Green. On September 16, Moore led the Wolverines to a 31–6 victory over the Falcons, giving him his first official win as a head coach. Following Harbaugh's second suspension of the 2023 season, this time imposed by the Big Ten Conference in response to the Michigan Wolverines football sign-stealing scandal, Moore was once again named interim head coach. In the first game of Moore's second stint as interim head coach, the Wolverines defeated Penn State, 24–15, on November 11. The following week, Moore led Michigan to a 31–24 win at Maryland. In the final week of the regular season, Moore led the Wolverines to a 30–24 victory over Ohio State. Harbaugh was credited with these three wins.
Personal life
Moore and his wife, Kelli, were married in 2015.
