Head of Development
“Serbia became the perfect option for us due to its time zone and ease of travel. InterVenture’s Own Team Model™ allowed us to seamlessly extend our team, giving us a talented workforce in Belgrade that feels like an integral part of our local office. There are other advantages too, like not having to worry about administrative tasks, office management, payroll, or HR. This lets us focus entirely on development. The transparency, flexibility, and focus on delivering what we need makes InterVenture a great partner.”
The challenge.
Renovero’s platform faced technical limitations due to its legacy infrastructure, which could not keep pace with the growing demand. The outdated backend systems led to slower development cycles and made integrating new features challenging. Migrating from an on-premises setup to a cloud-based infrastructure became essential for achieving both scalability and flexibility. The frontend, built on older versions of Angular, struggled with performance and responsiveness, impacting user experience. Furthermore, Renovero required a solution to leverage real-time data analytics for more effective data-driven decision-making.
The solution.
InterVenture assembled a full-stack development team in Belgrade to drive Renovero’s digital transformation. The backend team built scalable REST APIs using Java and Spring Boot, ensuring the code was well-covered by unit and integration tests. We migrated the on-premises infrastructure to AWS, significantly enhancing scalability and reliability. On the frontend, the team modernized Renovero’s application by upgrading to the latest Angular version and TypeScript, boosting overall performance and responsiveness. This modernization enabled Renovero to roll out new features more quickly and efficiently.
