Do I get it right that you are not actually trying to run systemd
itself as a user
but to start a service by systemd that will run as an SSSD user.
You might have chicken and egg problem because the user might not be available
until SSSD is started and running. So I think the service you are trying to start should
be dependent on SSSD and make sure that SSSD is running.
Sorry if I misunderstood what you are trying to do.

Sorry for not getting back to you earlier, I missed your response. Correct: I'm not
altering who runs system itself, but trying to run my "ipython-notebook" service
as my own domain user account.
I can't even get it to work manually, after I've logged in using the account with
which I'm trying to run the service. Sorry the following is ellipsized, I can only get
to the non-ellipsized parts with journalctl and a pager, but they really don't add
value. The important part is code=exited, status=217/USER, which is a systemd code, not an
ipython code:
