After signing a new four-year contract with Celtic, he moved on loan to Ayr United in July 2018,[7] making his senior debut on 14 July 2018 in a Scottish League Cup game against former club Greenock Morton.[8][9] Having played for Ayr for the whole of the 2018–19 season, Doohan rejoined Ayr on loan for a second spell in July 2019.[10]

In July 2020 he was linked with a third spell at Ayr.[11] On 1 August 2020 he signed for Ross County on a season-long loan.[12] With Ross Laidlaw largely preferred in goal, he made only five appearances for Ross County and returned to Celtic in January 2021.[13] He then joined Dundee United on an emergency loan in April 2021 following an injury to their first choice-goalkeeper, Benjamin Siegrist.[14]

On 8 June 2025, head coach Steve Clarke called up Doohan to the Scotland senior team to travel for the friendly against Liechtenstein on 9 June 2025, following injuries to fellow goalkeepers Zander Clark, Craig Gordon, Angus Gunn, Liam Kelly and Robby McCrorie.
