    A tech company CEO has resigned after controversy over a video captured on the big screen at a Coldplay concert.

    Andy Byron resigned from his job as CEO of Astronomer Inc., according to a statement posted on LinkedIn by the company Saturday.

    Astronomer is dedicated to maintaining the principles and culture that have been with us since our inception. Our leadership is held to high standards of behavior and responsibility, and lately, these standards were not upheld,” the company mentioned in its LinkedIn update.

    This decision follows the company’s announcement just a day earlier that Byron was placed on leave, and the board of directors initiated a formal investigation regarding the widely publicized incident.

    A brief video from Coldplay’s concert on Wednesday at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, captured a man and woman cuddling and smiling, with his arms enveloping her as she leaned back into him. When they noticed themselves on the giant screen, her expression transformed to surprise, her hands covered her face, and she turned away from the lens. He exited the view, and so did she.

    Lead singer Chris Martin had asked the cameras to scan the crowd for his “Jumbotron Song,” when he sings a few lines about the people the camera lands on.

    “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy,” he joked.

    Internet sleuths identified the man as the chief executive officer of a U.S.-based company and the woman as its chief people officer.

    Pete DeJoy, Astronomer’s cofounder and chief product officer, has been tapped as interim CEO while the company conducts a search for Byron’s successor.
