Building and hardening Hyper-V clusters for core services including AD, DNS and PKI

Understanding of AD, DNS and PKI
Experience with HSM/KMS technologies would be beneficial
Experience delivering physical infrastructure, including rack-and-stack and cablingDue to the nature of the project, you'll need to have active DV Clearance.
