Large language models (LLMs) can generate plausible code but offer limited guarantees of correctness. Formally verifying that implementations satisfy specifications requires constructing machine-checkable proofs, a task that remains beyond current automation. We propose a hierarchical proof search framework for automated code verification in Lean 4 that decomposes complex verification goals into structurally simpler subgoals before attempting tactic-level proving. Central to our approach is a principled decomposition score that combines constructive justification with structural effectiveness. The same score serves as both the training reward and the inference-time ranking criterion, aligning optimization and deployment. We train Goedel Code Prover, a single unified policy for both decomposition and completion, through supervised initialization followed by hybrid reinforcement learning, where a continuous decomposition reward supports planning exploration while supervised replay stabilizes proof generation. On three Lean-based code verification benchmarks comprising 427 tasks, our 8B-parameter model achieves a 62.0% prove success rate, a 2.6 improvement over the strongest baseline under the reported inference settings. We further observe consistent inference-time scaling: success rates improve monotonically with search iterations and sampling budget, while whole-proof baselines plateau within the evaluated budgets.
