AWS Simple Workflows or Azure Logic Apps are both services that let you define S2S workflows however you like without any particular bias to CI/CD or business operations.
If you want to go even lower level, a framework like DTFx lets you define long-running, distributed and resilient orchestrations in code:
I'd say give Temporal (https://temporal.io) a look, but there are a lot of options (https://github.com/meirwah/awesome-workflow-engines).

An often overlooked framework used by NASA among others is Kedro https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro. Kedro is probably the simplest set of abstractions for building pipelines but it doesn't attempt to kill Airflow. It even has an Airflow plugin that allows it to be used as a DSL for building Airflow pipelines or plug into whichever production orchestration system is needed.
Astronomer has CLI that makes this week a 5 minutes task.
Disclaimer: I work for Prefect.
It looks like we added cron and other schedule types to the deployment CLI just under a month ago[1].
Over the last couple of releases, we've also made it easier to pull deployments from GitHub or bake your flow code into Docker images instead of needing S3-like storage.
As with any product, there's always more to do, so I appreciate you sharing your thoughts. More than anywhere else I've worked, community feedback is a huge driver of product enhancements and feature development. Feel free to join our Slack community[2] if you'd like to share more feedback or ask questions.
