Cassian is the first Star Wars character portrayed by a Mexican actor and one of the first Latino lead characters in a Star Wars film. His appearances in Rogue One and Andor are considered milestones in the history of racial diversity and Latino representation in the Star Wars franchise.
WizardWarrior1 is correct, when describing a character like Cassian Andor it's very difficult to use the terms “good” and “bad” to describe him. Cassian is fighting against a regime that is tyrannical and oppressive. However he does tend to do things you wouldn't think “good guys” would do.
Meero wanted Cassian in custody, and that was exactly why Luthen Rael wanted him dead. To put it bluntly, Cassian knew too much. He knew about Aldhani and Luthen's operatives. As such, it was paramount that Luthen, Vel or Cinta find him before he was captured and brought back to the Empire.
Maarva sensed the evolving seriousness of the situation and encouraged Cassian to stop looking for his sister later in the season, insisting she may be long gone and he would never find her.
As for Cassian Andor's age, according to Star Wars: Rogue One: The Ultimate Visual Guide, Cassian was born on the planet Fest in 26 BBY.

The relationship between Bix and Cassian is platonic to this point, although there is no doubt that they are incredibly close. In fact, Andor could be teeing up its version of the original Skywalker twins twist that Luke and Leia were related. It will not be surprising if Bix is Cassian's missing sister.
Cassian building the Death Star -- even without knowing it -- has a beautiful sense of poetry. The man who is responsible for providing the means to destroy the space station also helped to create it.

In A Court of Silver Flames he and Nesta are revealed to be mates and Cassian confirms he's suspected she was his from the moment he met her, even if she was still human back then.
If there was one thing that the ruthless, fearless, Commander Cassian was scared of, it was the lovable creature that lived in the catacombs of the library: Bryaxis.
At the start of WaR, the inner circle suspect Cassian and Nesta are mates. Freye and Rhys even have a conversation about it. By the end of WaR, everyone has to know he and Nesta truly are mates.
Skeen's proposed betrayal sets in motion for Cassian to leave once again. For a moment, it appeared like he would stay with Vel until he was paid by Luthen. If Skeen was so quick to betray everyone else, can Cassian really trust Vel or Luthen to hold up their end of the bargain?
The series follows thief-turned-rebel spy Cassian Andor during the five years that lead to the events of the two films, exploring how he becomes radicalized against the Galactic Empire and how the wider Rebel Alliance is formed.
The biggest factor that makes Andor's Syril Karn the most dangerous villain is what he represents in the Star Wars universe. The Empire's true threat comes from its ability to make its citizens blindly follow instructions and convince them that all their problems stem from the Rebels.
