Charles Stross' Laundry series is basically this concept set in the present day: magic is a branch of mathematics, which means it can be computed and programmed.
It is perhaps worth noting at this point the series genre is cosmic horror.
The gender is actually Lovecraftian, spy thriller, science fiction, and workplace humour source.
It's seriously the best thing I have read in a decade.
Edit: genre I guess ๐ (have been learning French lately so sometimes it messes it all up!).
I've never felt the urge to explore new genders until I read this...
