Not extremely well, but I did a small PoC where Jenkins is running in Kubernetes without persistent storage. Plugins are installed on boot with install-plugins.sh (part of Jenkins' Docker image) and configuration is done via Groovy scripts in init.groovy.d (stuff like https://gist.github.com/Buzer/5148372464e2481a797091682fabba...). It's not perfect (e.g. I didn't have time to find out good way to store & import old builds) & it does require some digging around to find how plugins actually do their configuration.
