Not so fast. What type of engineer? They vary wildly......
A PetE in O&G, absolutely. ChemE/MechE in O&G/Chem, absolutely. Civil Engineers in the infrastructure world, not likely. A 10-15 Sr PM may be at $110-120k max. The Civil guys hitting $160k are likely rainmakers and a much fewer and far between with north of 15 years. They are the cool kids and/or business-minded bunch. Granted $140-160k is a base figure and would be supplemented with bonuses ranging from $25-$100k.
On topic: CEO of insert company.
Btw, some astronauts would respond by saying Areonautical Engineer or pilot.
