Access denied with Sp-farm Account

Hi All
Iam have sp farm with 4 servers,2 app and 2 wfe's and where installed sp 2016 .client provided sp-install and sp-farm accounts to install sp.Due to Security reasons they have enabled MFA (OTP method) for their domain and due this security concern we are unable to use these accounts for logging to the servers(RDP).where these accounts are part of local administrator group on all 4 sp servers.so I used my account for login purpose and ranned sp files with install account using run as different user option i.e (sp -prerequisites /binaries/farm wizard@ 4 servers).Is it right approach?......I don't have another option///// so made like this .....

So right now farm account is even part of farm administrators group and having "db creator" & "secururity admin" roles_sql............ I cannot able to see all option on CA and cannot able to execute ps commands .could you please suggest what would be reason .....

Since you installed SP with your account, now your account has the farm administrator rights.
Try running below command (with your login) to promote sp-farm account as farm administrator
Get-SPDatabase | Add-SPShellAdmin -Username DOMAIN\sp-farm

You need to add this SP-Farm account as local admin of all the servers in your farm.
