Grill or boil the corn for about 10 minutes until tender, then cool and cut kernels off the cob.
In a large mixing bowl, combine corn, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper until emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
