On August 12, 2004, when he was in the 5th grade (age 11), Yamada appeared on the variety show Ya-ya-yah, where his audition for Johnny and Associates was aired. In July 2006, Yamada got his first role in a TV drama, Tantei Gakuen Q Special. In April 2007, he was chosen to be a member of the temporary unit Hey! Say! 7, and made his CD debut on August 1, when their single "Hey! Say!" was released. Between July and September of 2007, Tantei Gakuen Q became a TV drama series and Yamada played the same role he did in the Special that aired in 2006. From September 24, 2007, Yamada began performing as a member of Hey! Say! JUMP, making his debut on November 14. In June 2009, Yamada became the leader of a temporary group NYC Boys with Yuri Chinen and Yuma Nakayama w/B.I.Shadow as a supporter for the Japanese Volleyball Team for the FIVB World Grand Prix 2009.

On March 2, 2010, an official press release made by Johnny and Associates revealed that Yamada and Chinen would be debuting for the second time as NYC. They will be working as a member of both Hey! Say! JUMP and NYC, which is a rarity in their talent agency.
