Selected work
Engagements where we owned the architecture, led the team, and kept the software in production for years. Two of them, in depth below.
- book-n-drive
- ElimiWait
- ClearDestination
- bamcard
- RAWR.at
- TeachPoint
book-n-drive Carsharing
A nine-year partnership with the largest carsharing operator in Germany's Rhein-Main region. We built the product on top of an aging legacy platform, kept it running as that platform was retired, and led the migration to AWS with infrastructure-as-code.

Built and ran the product engineering function for a valet-parking SaaS alongside the founders. Two product lines on a .NET and AWS platform, through to a successful acquisition.

- Financial services bamcard A SOAP security and PKI-encryption layer for the mobile client of Bosnia and Herzegovina's national card-payment processor, so it could exchange card data over public and private-key cryptography.
- Logistics ClearDestination Canadian last-mile logistics. Driver voice-over-IP flows, a C# / WebAPI backend, and a native Android driver app with signature capture.
Teams built around the engagement.
Genijalno is a Sarajevo-based engineering practice. For each client we combine senior architecture and delivery leadership with engineers assembled to the scope. The relationship is long-form by default: years of ownership, not a short staffing sprint.
We also take over work we didn't start. When a build has stalled, or a system has to keep running while it is rebuilt underneath, we step in, take ownership, and get it back on solid ground.
Team size scales to the work: a peak of 16 engineers, and teams of up to 8 on recent programmes. We staff to the programme, not to a fixed bench, and we take new engagements selectively.

Architecture advisory
Days to a few weeksA solution-design review, a vendor-evaluation call, a second opinion on an in-flight programme, or a written target-state architecture for a regulated domain.
-
Architecture lead plus team
Months to multi-yearGenijalno takes architectural ownership and assembles the delivery team around it. For programme-sized builds: a new platform, a major re-architecture, multi-vendor integration, or taking over and stabilizing an in-flight build.
-
Full engineering partnership
Multi-yearEnd-to-end responsibility for a product line: architecture, engineering, delivery, and often hiring the team around it. book-n-drive and ElimiWait are the canonical examples.
How we build with AI
AI is part of how we work, not a bolt-on. We use modern AI tooling, Cursor and Claude among them, across the delivery loop: AI-assisted architecture and solution-design documentation, faster legacy analysis and migration, test generation, and review support.
Architecture and review stay human-owned. AI is the accelerator, not the decision-maker, which is what regulated and enterprise work demands.
What clients say
"Working with Genijalno is a breeze. I've never experienced a team of developers that is acting pro-active and forward-thinking like they do. I highly recommend Senad Biser and his team to everybody, who is seriously planning to develop their own software."
Martin Trillig, book-n-drive Carsharing
"Genijalno.ba has been instrumental in the development and support of our products as well as the dev ops needed to keep everything running smoothly. The team works very hard (and smart) to ensure we, and our customers, have exactly what we need. Genijalno.ba constantly challenges us to ensure we are providing the right solution that will benefit our customers for years to come."
Brett Weiss, Co-Founder, ElimiWait
"Genijalno.ba not only participated in the project as a classical development agency and supplier, but also tried to improve the project and the processes of the product itself. Even above their duty."
Stefan Natter, Product Owner, RAWR.at
"We had an excellent experience with the development group. Their intelligence, level of expertise in software development, and excellent communication skills, made working with them a pleasure. Our software code is extensive and quite complex, and we always felt we were in good hands, and the results met our high standards."
Chris Dunn, President, TeachPoint

Or what's gone wrong with what you've got. You'll hear back from a senior engineer, not a sales rep, with a straight answer: whether we're the right team, where else to look if we're not, and a sensible first step if we are.
