Hiroshi Kubota (久保田浩), born 10 October 1965 in Fukuoka, Japan, is a musician and programmer who worked at Sega in the early to mid 1990s. He was responsible for converting Masato Nakamura's music for playback on the Mega Drive's SMPS sound engine in the original Sonic the Hedgehog, as well as co-composing music for the Mega Drive version of Sorcerian.

His alias from the Sega days, Jimita, is still used on his personal website.
