Kenji Kaido (海道 賢仁, Kaidō Kenji^?) is the producer of Sony Computer Entertainment Japan's Product Development Department #1.

Kaidō started his videogaming career at Taito in 1987, where he worked as project leader and lead game designer on arcade titles Bonze Adventure, Night Striker, Champion Wrestler, Cameltry, Sonic Blast Man, Warrior Blade and Dead Connection.

Kaidō then changed departments to work on the world's very first Home Karaoke Console, the X55 (presently called MEDIA BOX) from its very beginnings. In 1996, he then worked as the project leader and lead game designer for coin-op game Cleopatra Fortune.

In 1997, Kaidō left Taito and joined Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. There he started working on the game Ape Escape as its lead game designer and associate producer.

He was producer to Ico (2001), and served as both the project manager and line producer for Shadow of the Colossus (2005), its "spiritual sequel".
