I am privacy conscious so I would like to use my proton.me account, but I wanted some advice. Should I use my gmail account for career related purposes or should a proton.me address be fine?

I think you're over thinking this. The Proton.me account will be fine. Neither particularly beneficial or detrimental.

More important is the actual address. Ideally that should be your actual name, rather than something rediculous like iloveboobies1999@...

If you have a paid Proton account you can set up multiple email addresses under the same account if you want to compartmentalise your work and personal life.
