The hiring managers don't have that power. Not sure if you have done an interview loop but I assume that as a tenure track/tenured professor you're going to be L6+ individual contributor in a research group. In that interview loop you're probably going to have a decent amount of face time with a director level or VP. IMO if you're actually interested in making the jump the right play is to get the job, and then negotiate the office with the director/vp that you'd be reporting to, they will 99% of the time not let office access be something that stops them from hiring a staff+ engineer. Feel free to ping me directly if you want to ask more questions.
