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?

No one really cares as long as it's not something extremely weird.

I personally opted for registering a domain name which I use to create an aliased email (along with a personal website), but this is mostly to set myself up for a possible pivot to doing consulting later on in my career. It's pretty cheap, all things considered - I pay $12 a year for it.
