Orozco is a product of Deportivo Táchira and made his professional debut for the club on 19 August 2018 against Monagas in the Venezuelan Primera División.[2] He started on the bench, before he came on as a substitute for Ronaldo Lucena in the 73rd minute. Orozco scored his first professional goal for Deportivo Táchira on 13 November 2020 against Portuguesa, where he became the match-winner in a 1–0 victory.[3]

After a game between Deportivo Táchira and Brazilian club Internacional in the Copa Libertadores on 28 April 2021, which Táchira lost 0-4, it was revealed that Orozco had been invited to join the Brazilian club for a period, so Internacional could evaluate him.[4][5]
