based on my understanding of your post, you WANT to go to leadership role in long term, but you got offer for non-leadership role. I would not accept this offer if both companies are in same caliber, because you don't know when you can adjust your ladder again to leadership position in upcoming years, you might end up being engineer for next 5 years.
If we are talking about different caliber companies, say jumping from medium sized business IT department to FAANG companies, then probably you might be okay, since after getting FAANG in your resume, your next journey might immediately start with Engineering manager, Team lead positions.
