It is not bound to the job description "developer" but by the job description
"worker" / "employee".
I repeat: Standard contracts say that _all_ work you do for a company belongs
to that company. It doesn't matter whether its some creative or developing or
"just" technical thing you do (even fetching garbage falls in there). Standard
contracts say, in copyright terms, that you give them exclusive rights to
publish and use your works.
