何してんの?

The translated meaning is "what are you doing?", but I am having difficulty understanding how the て form of する is referring to the present tense (I would have expected している here).

Also, I am not comfortable with the "ん", although I have seen it appear before.

    As a Japanese-speaker, I felt the same way when I first heard an English-speaker say "Whatcha doin'?" –  Aug 05 '18 at 16:13
