This is a very vauge question.  There are lots of ways to skin this cat depending on what you are actually trying to do.  If you are trying to rescheduled jobs, you can do that by doing an apex call via a script and the ToolingAPI.  If you are looking to update something that can only be done via point / click in the web ui, you can automate this with selenium or something like casperjs.

Is there something specific that you are trying to accomplish that you cannot figure out how to do in a CI fashion?

Fortunately, Yes you can do it. Someone has written an ant script(thats used as brain of CI) and java code to automated post deployment scripts using excuteAnonymous . You can find something similar for pre deployment changes as well.
