team in 2000. He has been a consistent scorer in both league and international games. In 2003 Hairuddin and his two teammates, Subri Sulong and Rosdi Talib
from Terengganu
decided to join Pahang
when Terengganu
failed to pay their wages.
After 6 years spending his career with Pahang FA
, Hairuddin return to Terengganu but not with Terengganu FA
. He sign with a club located in Kuala Terengganu, PBDKT T-Team FC
. During the Malaysia Cup
2009, he join Negeri Sembilan
for a loan as PBDKT T-Team FC
unable to participate in Malaysia Cup
Tournament. Negeri Sembilan

.
For the season of 2010, he signed with Kelantan
. He was part of the Kelantan's
2010 Malaysia Cup
winning team. He scored Kelantan's first goal on the second half of the 2010 Malaysia Cup
final and was awarded Man of the Match.
He played for Negeri Sembilan
for the 2011 Malaysian Super League
season. His first full season with Negeri was a mixed one, as he only scored 4 goals in the league. However he found his goalscoring form in the 2011 Malaysia Cup
, scoring 8 goals to claim the tournament's golden boot, including the winning goal in the final against his former team Terengganu, as Negeri Sembilan wins the Malaysia Cup. This was Hairuddin's third straight Malaysia Cup winner's medal.
and has won numerous caps since. However, since his last call-up in 2005 for the Causeway Challenge against Malaysia's rival, Singapore, he was not called up for the national team for almost two years. In 2007 Hairuddin is back in the national fold with his call-up to 2007 ASEAN Football Championship
. He has been earmarked by coach Norizan Bakar
for the role of the target man. He scored two goals in this championship while Malaysia
lost to the eventual champion, Singapore in the semifinal.
His presence as the front man is acknowledged by many. His partnership with Akmal Rizal Ahmad Rakhli
in the national team between 2001 and 2003 was much-vaunted and produced many memorable goals. The trick in those days was for Hairuddin to out-jump his opponents to cushion head the ball to Akmal, whose speed would leave many trailing in his wake. Noted for his aerial ability, Hairuddin earned the distinction of scoring the Malaysia
's solitary goal in the 4–1 defeat to Chelsea
in FA Premier League Asia Cup 2003, an invitational tournament in 2003. Then he out-jumped England Under-21 international John Terry, now captain of England
, to nod the ball home off a swerving corner kick from his Terengganu
teammate, Rosdi Talib
, four minutes after Frank Lampard
had opened the scoring in the 36th minute.
It was as a result of a well-worked set-piece the boys managed to translate into the game, giving the nation the first goal against an English opponent since Matlan Marjan
's double against England
at Merdeka Stadium in 1991.
In recent times, Hairuddin has been strongly criticized for this lack of goals as a striker for both his club and the national team. His selection during the disastrous 2007 Asian Cup was widely debated. He did not pose a threat in either of the 3 group games. As a result, new manager B. Sathianathan
omitted Hairuddin from the Merdeka Tournament
squad, choosing younger players like Mohd Safee Mohd Sali and Zaquan Adha Abdul Radzak. Malaysia duly won the tournament, with Zaquan and Safee both shining through, especially in the semifinal and final against Singapore and Myanmar.
