Customized Telegram Bot

I am looking for a skilled developer to create a custom Telegram bot for automating certain tasks within my workflow. The bot should be capable of performing the following:
·      Respond to user commands
·      Integrate with external APIs (e.g., weather, news, etc.)
·      Store and retrieve user data
·      Provide real-time notifications based on specific triggers
·      Allow for easy future updates and modifications
The bot should be lightweight, efficient, and well-documented for easy maintenance.
Requirements:
·      Proven experience in developing Telegram bots
·      Strong knowledge of Python, Node.js, or other relevant technologies
·      Ability to implement secure data handling practices
·      Good communication skills to ensure a smooth development process
If you have experience working with Telegram bots and can deliver a functional, secure solution, I'd love to hear from you. Please include relevant examples of your previous bot projects.
