According to the Washington Post:

> Prosecutors said the China-based executive, Xinjiang Jin, worked as Zoom’s primary liaison with Chinese law enforcement and intelligence services, sharing user information and terminating video calls at the Chinese government’s request.

This role does not sound like an "executive" in the sense I think of it. It sounds like an individual contributor role, and not one that sets company policy either.

Whatever definition of "executive" floats your boat, I guess.

People answering the phone in call centers often have the official job title "Customer Service Executive" in companies (just search google for jobs). Just saying.

Primary liaison with police and the CCP does not sound like a low wage job especially for a Chinese firm.
