You certainty do not need an MBA to reach executive level in American technology companies. Just a few CEO examples off the top of my head:
Eric Schmidt (Google) has a PhD.
Dara Khosrowshahi (Uber) has 'just' a BS.
Ginni Rometty (IBM) also has no postgraduate education.
I strongly suspect a minority of executives in tech have MBAs. I don't have anything against the MBA (my father and wife have them) but it's by no means necessary.
