OK, so if you get a TN visa with one status and the company wants to promote you into a different role, they would not be able to?

Correct. There’s some wiggle room and a good lawyer and explain the options but possibly yes, you may or may not be able to have certain other roles.
You can get promoted along the engineering track totally fine as an “individual contributor” and you can often be a manager too if you are primarily applying your software engineering skills day to day.
