Jamieson grew up in Polbeth, West Lothian and attended West Calder high school. He played in goal from a young age with Murieston United alongside pros like Danny Wilson and Rhys McCabe. Jamieson was then scouted by Rangers where he played for a few years before leaving for Livingston.
A product of Livingston's youth system, Jamieson made his debut for the first-team on 27 April 2010, in a 2–0 home win over Albion Rovers in the Scottish Third Division.[2] His next appearance came the following season on 7 May 2011, in a 3–1 away win against Alloa Athletic in the Scottish Second Division.[3] Over the next couple of seasons, he was mainly utilised as reserve keeper in the first-team. He made three consecutive Scottish First Division appearances towards the end of season 2012–13, keeping two clean sheets in those three matches. Jamieson cemented his place as the number 1 goalkeeper at Livingston and in his first season as #1 saved five penalties.[4] He was awarded both supporters young player and play of the year at the end of the season.

Jamieson was released by Livingston on 31 August 2016.[6] Livingston said that he had been released in order to join Premiership club Hamilton Academical,[7] but he was not a Hamilton squad member by 9 September.[8] He finally signed for Hamilton later that month, after a spell with Bo'ness.[9]
Jamieson was one of seven first-team players released by Hamilton at the end of the 2017–18 season,[10]
Jamieson then signed with League One club Arbroath in May 2018,[11] going on to win promotion to the Championship with the club as 2018–19 League One champions.[12]
