You should be able to do it by passing a connection into your DbContext and hooking the StateChange event: (Please forgive the SQLite example. I know you said PostgreSQL.)

var connection = new SqliteConnection(connectionString);
_connection.StateChange += (sender, e) =>
{
    if (e.OriginalState != ConnectionState.Open)
        return;

    var senderConnection = (DbConnection)sender;

    using (var command = senderConnection.CreateCommand())
    {
        command.Connection = senderConnection;
        command.CommandText = "-- TODO: Put little SQL command here.";

        command.ExecuteNonQuery();
    }
};

optionsBuilder.UseSqlite(connection);
