After Andy Byron's resignation, Pete DeJoy steps in as interim CEO of Astronomer. He expresses a desire to move past recent publicity and reinforce the company's commitment to data and AI solutions.

The 'Kiss Cam' incident at a Coldplay concert has led to the resignation of Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, but Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot remains on leave, prompting questions about the disparity in their consequences.

Kristin Cabot, the HR executive caught canoodling with Astronomer CEO Andy Byron at a Coldplay concert, is married to the CEO of a different company -- and bought a house with him less than five months before the scandal hit,

Before being caught in the arms of married Astronomer CEO Andy Byron, the company’s HR chief, Kristin Cabot, boasted that she “wins trust” of CEOs. “An influential leader and fearless change agent, I lead by example and win trust with employees of all levels, from CEOs to managers to assistants,” she wrote via her LinkedIn bio.

"The spotlight has been unusual and surreal for our team and, while I would never have wished for it to happen like this, Astronomer is now a household name,” said cofounder Pete DeJoy.

Astronomer's interim CEO Pete DeJoy said in an update that the startup had "received a level of media attention that few companies" ever encounter.

Astronomer's hiring announcement for Kristin Cabot was deleted amid rumors of an affair with CEO Andy Byron seen at a Coldplay concert
