Yes; a SERP is a Google search result page. It's the most important acronym in SEO.

I don’t remember never ever hearing it and I’ve been in the industry for some time

Huh. I've never been in the industry, but noticed "SERP" at least 15, maybe 20, years ago and have remembered it since.

(If I were writing something to be published, though, I would write "search-engine results page" instead of "SERP".)

You've been in the SEO industry for some time and never heard SERP?

The web programming industry, not the SEO industry

There is actually only very little overlap between SEO and web development. Web developers should know some basic technical SEO but you'd be surprised how much knowledge is in the SEO industry that doesn't overlap at all with development. So, it's not too surprising you don't know what SERP is. Web devs might think SEO just means fast load times, proper markup, meta tags, etc but that's only the very surface

You can't be serious.
