​ci.freebsd.org uses Jenkins Job Builder from OpenStack:
https://docs.openstack.org/infra/jenkins-job-builder/
by which you can define your jobs in YAML and save them
in VCS.

Jenkins 2 also offers "pipeline as code" feature
by which you can control your jobs more:
https://jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/
