Pads are new and so are the rotors.
I could be wrong, but it doesn't look or sound like something to be particularly worried about.

I would remove the pad that meets that rotor face and look at the matching arc on the pad face to see if there's something there that might be causing the groove.

If you haven't already, you might also want to look at the inside faces of each rotor. They're probably fine, but it wouldn't hurt to confirm that.
