In a bowl, combine orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, cilantro, jalapeño, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
Place the steak in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably 4 hours.
Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove steak from marinade and grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness.
Remove steak from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain.
Warm the tortillas on the grill or stovetop.
Assemble tacos by placing steak slices on tortillas and topping with diced onion, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice. Add salsa or hot sauce if desired.
