No, it's not leaking. Here's what the installation guide has to say.

Please note: After bleeding the system, there will remain a small amount of residual brake fluid inside the
bleed screws and/or around the threads. As the calipers heat up, this fluid will force its way out and will
look like the calipers are leaking. This is perfectly normal and will go away after a short time. If you experience a spongy pedal or continue to see fluid leaking after a day or so then re-torque the bleed screws to the
proper 150 in/lbs.
