Our Leadership
Jody Haneke
President / Founder
Jody Haneke is the President & Founder of Haneke Design in Tampa, FL. A graduate of Ringling College of Art + Design, he has always had a passion for all things design. Since then, Jody Haneke transformed the graphic and interactive design agency he established in 2002 into a full-service custom software development company.

Mark Smith
Director of Development Services
After joining the Air Force Reserves straight out of high school, Mark decided to follow his passion for technology by enrolling in The Iron Yard coding bootcamp. He joined Haneke Design in 2016 as a Rails developer, but–through a dedication to continual learning–has become a talented front-end developer as well. Mark has worn many hats here, including full-stack developer, web development team lead–and now, Director of Development services. He continues to be driven by learning, even in his spare time when he’s likely picking up a new hobby or planning out his next long-distance cycling trek.
Jason Rivers
Director of Design Services
Jason’s drive is fueled by a passion for usability based on understanding both business goals and user needs. His experience in graphic and interactive design began unconventionally, cutting his teeth as an editorial illustrator. A strong interest in traditional media and the printing process lead to a journey into graphic design. Then, with the rise of the commercial internet, he found his niche. Web and interface design was a natural fit, culminating in a steady stream of interactive projects for clients ranging from venture-funded startups to multi-national enterprises.
