Engineering Manager is really where any motivated ME (or any other flavor of engineer) should be aiming (likely with a first stop at either a formal or informal "Supervisor" position) as that then provides the path for Engineering Director, VP of Engineering, CTO...

This. He speaks the truth. This is my current situation. Although my position consists of being the magician that makes things happen, I rely on engineers for actually getting my projects across the finish line. I am rarely involved with the technical aspects but am the initiator and the final inspector. I'm currently stagnant in my position.
