Andy Byron resigned as CEO of Astronomer after a viral video incident at a Coldplay concert where he was seen with Kristin Cabot, the chief people officer. Following the incident, both Byron and Cabot were placed on leave. The company emphasized the importance of leadership conduct and accountability. Despite the incident affecting public awareness, Astronomer reaffirmed its commitment to its product and work for customers. Pete DeJoy has been appointed interim CEO while the board seeks a permanent replacement.
Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met.
Before this week, we were known as a pioneer in the DataOps space, helping data teams power everything from modern analytics to production AI.
