It depends if you have an employment contract or not. If not (and sometimes even then) you can be fired for any reason as you are an "employee at will' and it is at the companies discretion as to if they want to continue your employment.

Will an employer find out about house arrest and can they fire you for it?

Court records are public records in the United States. Whether or not an employer will check those records is another story. An employer can find out about a conviction. Whether or not an employer will find out about a conviction is a different issue. The fact that following your conviction you were held under house arrest is irrelevant. The nature of the punishment is irrelevant. The fact that you were convicted is the relevant issue. Was there a deal made that would get the conviction removed from your record? Was that part of any agreement? It is illegal for an employer to fire you in the United States because you were arrested. It is legal for an employer to fire you in the United States because you were convicted. Is the conviction on your record?
