That tree has already been shaped for production, it seems. There is no need to prune, unless you are taking out diseased branches. This should be done closer to the end of Winter, or start of Spring.

Keep in mind, they take a very long time to produce, and in container will be longer if they fruit at all. This article will help you with their, general care:
