Why does firefox need a CEO? Is the Linux model not feasible?

The Linux Foundation has an executive director, which is the usual title (not CEO) for the head of a non-profit.

Because Mozilla is an explicitly mission driven non-profit. Linux doesn't really have a model, the closest equivalent is basically Chromium which is to say it's an open source project to which extremely large companies donate the vast majority of developer hours.
