Sounds like you want to automate your infrastructure using some 
configuration tool like Puppet or Chef.

Furthermore, you could have all build/servers share one key-pair (which is 
distributed/updated by Puppet). I mean, if any one of them are compromised, 
the attacker got all your source-code anyway, right?

Try googling "distributing ssh keys with puppet", looks like there are a 
lot of interesting material about this.
