Oh god why did you make me read that.

What kind of wanky bs is "engineering velocity". Maybe the post was written by AI?

It's a real term. It's a Agile metric for measuring how much a team is shipping over time.

Whether or not the whole concept is wanky bs depends on who you ask lol. It's useful if you measure it over time, not so much otherwise.
