He joined the senior team in 2011 in the Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina.[3][4] He made his debut for Slavija on August 11, 2011, against FK Sarajevo.[5] However, he experienced limited playing time as he received an injury early in the season.[6] In total, he played in 6 matches in his debut season.[5]

The following season he remained in the Bosnian top tier and secured a deal with NK Travnik.[7] He made his debut for Travnik on August 12, 2012, against former club Sarajevo.[5] His tenure was cut short with Travnik as he departed during the January transfer window.[8][9] Throughout his stint with Travnik, he appeared in 7 matches.[5] For the remainder of the 2012–13 season, he played in the First League of Bosnia and Herzegovina with Bosna Visoko.[10] In 2013, he played with NK Famos Hrasnica.[11]

In 2015, he played abroad in the Canadian Soccer League with Milton SC.[12] In his debut season with Milton, he assisted the club in securing a playoff berth by finishing seventh in the First Division.[13] Milton was defeated in the opening round of the postseason by Toronto Croatia.[14] He also played in the league's second division with the reserve team where he aided the club in securing a berth in the playoffs.[15] He was featured in the championship final where he recorded a goal against SC Waterloo Region's reserve team to claim the title.[16][17]

He re-signed with Milton for another season in 2016 where he was named the team captain.[18] Smajić assisted the club in securing a playoff berth where they were eliminated in the first round by York Region Shooters.[19] He finished as the team's top goal scorer with 12 goals which ranked him third in the overall scoring charts.
