Aficionado
I've always taken this to be a fancy word for a professional, one who really knows whereof they speak. I guess it can be, but it really means a fan or devotee.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.

Recognizing the cognate to "affection", I'd say that a person who really likes their job, as well as being good at it, is amazingly fortunate.
