Theism is the belief in a god or gods. Presumably Jesus absolutely knew that there was a god thus rendering belief meaningless.

As Jesus did not believe in God his position cannot satisfy the term 'theist'. Anyone who is not a theist must be the opposite and the term for that is atheist.

So, Jesus was an atheist as he had no belief or faith in the existence of a god or gods.
