Andy Byron, CEO of Astronomer since 2023, is not a founder, so his ownership stake is likely 1-5% (typical for hired CEOs in VC-backed firms; exact figure not public). As CEO and board member, he has strong sway, but the VC-dominated board (e.g., Bain, Venrock) could oust him amid scandal. Sources: Crunchbase, company site.
