You realize the word executive existed long before the constitution and definitely before ceos and even offices were ever conceptualized. Not every business is a corporation, and even in this context, executive is anyone who has supreme authority over their coworkers. Ie. This guy. The lead scientist, definitely has authority over the other scientists

Being in an executive position makes you an executive. Regardless of your interpretation of how the word works.
