It’s industry jargon referring to the person who makes the final high-fidelity mockups. There are other people who make low- and medium-fidelity mockups who never make “pixel perfect” mockups.
Your wording of making the final, high-fidelity mock-ups is a much better way to word it, though, in my opinion
Any job I've had that described it being "pixel, perfect"....I promise they don't actually know what it means or entails 😂 coming from someone who absolutely can be pixel perfect and they don't even notice.
This is accurate. Also part of why it bothers me to see it listed. 😂
It matters to the developers more. Like is this ten pixel margins or not? I can’t tell.
It really means “you are detail oriented and thorough in delivering well specced out designs” give people a break, hiring managers rely on HR to find candidates, you’ll get to ask about that on your first Bret view with a designer, and find out what the actual role is
This is also a much better way to word it.
Nothing against HR from me, it’s just a pet peeve of mine to see that particular line in job requirements when there are more realistic ways to word it.

If you're in digital production it still really matters.
It matters to actively try to get there, but to expect it all the time?
Not disagreed with some of the explanations and the true meaning of the expression, but I have personally moved away from that in any job outline or job add.
Going the lengths of even saying: “Focus on usable and accessible interfaces rather than pixel-perfect design”.
But to answer your question, is not because being perfect is not attainable, but because it focus on something that most likely doesn’t have any real impact on any outcome.
Pixel perfect are relative to density anyway 🙃
Imperfect jargon.
