Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture evenly onto both sides of the steak.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the steak and set aside to marinate while you prepare the corn salsa.
Brush the corn on the cob with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and place them on the grill. Grill for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the kernels are charred and cooked through.
Once the corn is cool enough to handle, use a sharp knife to cut the kernels off the cob and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Dice the cherry tomatoes, finely chop the red onion and cilantro, and (if using) dice the jalapeño and avocado. Add all the vegetables to the bowl with the roasted corn.
Add the lime juice to the bowl and toss well to combine. Season the roasted corn salsa with salt and pepper to taste, then set aside.
Grill the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your doneness preference. Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips and serve it alongside the roasted corn salsa. Optionally garnish with extra cilantro or lime wedges.
