When to capitalize a job title

Question

I'm currently writing a blog about web development. I'm unsure of when to capitalize a job title and the industry.

Are the following sentences correct?

As an experienced Front-End Developer......

Having worked alongside other developers....

Answer 1

TL;DR

I would change the first sentence to lower case and leave the second as is.

Longer Answer

I think this is up to your personal preference. When you are advertising yourself, or putting your career on your bio or business card, I would capitalize it. If, on the other hand, you were writing a story about "Joe, the front-end developer", I would not capitalize it, just like you wouldn't capitalize "Joe, the teacher".

As for your second example, I would never capitalize the word "developers" unless it were at the beginning of a sentence, or title text.
